Hi Tom, I do recall the three level chess set on trek. Too bad they didn't use it on the later shows like TNG. I think that would be interesting to say the least.Would it involve the regular chess pieces or would their more trekkie pieces like klingon bird of prey for knights, starbases for rooks etc and so forth. Your monster chess idea is neat as well, and would be interesting to see that when you get to it. I remember in star wars: a new hope where chewbacca, artoo deetoo where playing some kind of holographic chess game where the little monsters killed each other and such. Could be a nice variety to that monster chess idea. Archon was an excellent game for it's time and I played that game for many hours. The battles I and my friend had over a single power square are legend, grin.
