I would love to make a MML themed chess video game, not right now because I'm very busy with The Master System, but I was thinking, it would be cool to have the option to choose between various piece sets, for example:
Bonne set:
King: Tiesel
Queen: Tron
Bishop: Blumbear
Knight: Drache
Rook: Bon
Pawn: Servbots
Hero set:
King: Roll
Queen: Megaman (pieces would be switched to make Megaman the strongest piece)
Bishop: Aero
Knight: Barret (on his motorhorse)
Rook: Joe (?)
Pawns: Data
System set:
King: The Master
Queen: Sera
Bishop: Yuna
Knight: Juno
Rook: Warjigairon
Pawns: Fire Horokko
Having a reaverbot set would be cool too.
Unfortunately I lack the advanced knowledge required to program such a game, I could program each piece behavior and other things, but not cpu's AI, however, I think this is an interesting idea, don't you?

What about a reaverbot set? And I think you should keep megaman the king
For the reaverbot set you should have miroc's as pawns, zakobon's for rooks, the Garudoriten as king, hanmuru doll as queen

And I think you should keep megaman the king Oh. No, no, no, no, no. Making Roll the King is the perfect idea. After all, everybody knows who exactly wears the pants in the Casket household.  Regardless, it's a nice little idea, Striker. Would you hope for it to be 2D or 3D? 'Cause designing the pieces themselves will greatly vary depending on the dimension. |

Heck, if you knew anybody that's good at sculpting, you could probably make a physical copy MML-chess.  |

Or if you put that 3D printer to some serious work!  |

Yup, roll should definitely be the King, She manages the family's finances, after all...
The game would look better on 3d, each piece animated for idle, running and attacking States, as I mentioned before, the least I can do right now is model the pieces and program the basic movements for each one and make it a 2 player game with no programmed rules, leaving just a virtual chess board...
Although having a 3d printer to make physical pieces would definitely made me die happy.

Everything that's anything has been featured in Monopoly these days. Legends Monopoly needs to happen just because its existence would cement Mega Man Legends as an item of significance.
I have a resin kit myself which means if I had sculptures of these pieces I'd be able to clone a bunch of them cheaply, but I'm not any good at sculpting. Especially sculpting small things. Especially a tiny Wojigairon. Maybe a Servitor should be the System rook instead. It would be cool to have a literal Mega Man Legends chess set, though.

That's "SketchMan3". Capital S, capital M and the number 3. It's official (nicknames are ok, though)

I lold at the Data pawns idea. Reminds me of that drabble somebody posted. Instead of Data, what about using the cats as pawns? They are numerous enough. That frees Data up to be the Rook. Or perhaps the Flutter could be a Rook and the support car could be the other. They're similar enough that it shouldn't get confusing if they are designed right. They both are boxy and share the same color scheme. Sharkers(sharukurususurususr I forget how to spell it) should definitely be the reaverbot knights. There must be some sort of tutorials for creating chess ai that could be a good starting point. Edit: I'd think that Barrel would be a more logical choice for bishop, but I guess you have to fit Aero in there somewhere. |

Oooh, I like this. Perhaps this should actually be a project to be done by the board as a whole, with collaborative work. If it's done as a physical game, that is. As for the idea of Monopoly, I feel that Risk may be a better idea.
