Re: 'Square Off' Automated ChessBoards..
Unfortunately the programming of the sliding pieces isn't on par with the old Fidelity or Excalibur Phantoms. Pieces sometimes slightly bump into other pieces and other times the pieces aren't positioned in the middle of the squares.
Every time I ask when a software update is going to be released I get the same answer that it on their to do list.
Unfortunately their new Black & White board is only available in America. I have asked them why this is and if they intend to sell their new board here in Europe but they have not answered my enquiry.

Re: 'Square Off' Automated ChessBoards..
Are the chess pieces in proper proportion to the Chess Squares? They look a little small based on the photos...How tall is the King and Queen?mephisto wrote: ↑Thu Jul 18, 2019 8:50 am Unfortunately the programming of the sliding pieces isn't on par with the old Fidelity or Excalibur Phantoms.

Re: 'Square Off' Automated ChessBoards..
King is approx 2.5" night.
The smallness of the pieces is supposed to be so the pieces don't collide with one another when the knights move and when you castle.
