Human Chess Competition





1. Human chess is a variant of chess, often played at Renaissance Fairs, where people take on the roles of the various chess pieces (king, knight, bishop, etc.). This is typically done on an outdoor field, with the squares of the board marked out on the grass. Many Human Combat Chess Matches are choreographed stage shows performed by actors trained in stage combat. A move resulting in a piece being taken from the board will cause a choreographed fight to be played out to determine whether the piece is actually taken. Alternatively, the pieces may spar following rules similar to those used by the SCA.

2 To achieve human chess, UniKL MSI had invited 4 team, from school local around Kulim
