Team Fortress 2 Chess Set

[Shadowclad]

Think about it
Heavy is king (because he is big and important)
Medic is queen (self explanatory)
Scout is pawn (weak and fragile)
Soldier is knight (because he looks like one when he is crouching down and firing)
Sniper is rook (because they fire in long straight lines)
Who would be bishop though?

EDIT:
The checkerboard would of course be blue and red, in addition to the pieces

[Shmitz]

Spy, because he can sneak between people.

[Shadowclad]

Good idea. I agree completely

[Narkissus]

This would actually be pretty cool. I could see the stylized pieces now.

[Shadowclad]

Yes, if only we could get Valve to produce it and sell it in their store.

[Spacemonkeynz]

Who would the Demoman be?!

[Shadowclad]

Well... I tried to think of a place for him, the pyro, the medic, and the engineer, but I think I chose the best classes for each piece. He would probably be a bishop because I can't think of anything else for him.

[Shmitz]

Pyro would probably be one of the pawns, due to short range.

[Shadowclad]

Agreed, that's what I was thinking, but I thought the scout a better choice because he is very fragile and weak but can accelerate fast in the beginning (and if he was carrying a bat that would explain why he can only attack at short range).

[Hawk]

It's a neat idea. I kind of wonder about using the character with the weakest attack as the most powerful chess piece. But since the theme fits so well I'd let that slide.
