Since your talking about making new ship models. Can I ask that you consider making an Eve Chess Set? I believe you have enough variety in the Empire Races and ORE to make a set of pieces for each one. Not sure that you have enough ships for the Pirate factions.
Pawns - Frigate Knights - BattleCruiser Bishops - Logi Rooks -Battleship Queen - Carrier/Mothership King - Titan
As an example for the Minmatar pieces
Pawn - Rifter Knights - Hurricane Bishops - Scimitar Rooks - Tempest Queen - Hel King - Ragnarok
You could even do for ORE
Pawn - Venture Knights - Procurer Bishops - Noctis Rooks - Hulk Queen - Orca King - Rorqual |

Back in my OpenGL class (like 3 or 4 years ago) I ripped a bunch of ship models from the game with Triexporter and then made a chess board with cell-shaded Eve ships. I think I had Caldari on one side and Amarr on the other. I made a cell-shaded Wyvern first and it looked so cool that I decided I had to do more. And somehow that turned into a chess board.

Here's another version;
Pawn - Interceptor (Hero tackle, expendable) Knights - Heavy Assault Cruiser (Great mobility, usually fights within brawl range) Bishops - Tier 3 Battlecruiser (Excellent range, can land killing blow from across the field) Rooks - Tier 3 battleship (Also excellent range, survives a long time in a fight) Queen - Tech 3 cruiser (Because of versatility) King- Command Ship (Always dies last in a fight, usually, and is often piloted by the FC. When FC dies and there's no target caller, the fleet usually falls apart. Check Mate.)
And have 4 sets of this, one for each race. |

I'm hoping to see some models appropriately scaled to allow for this. I don't think its necessary for CCP to market an actual chess set though.

Rooks - Tier 3 battleship (Also excellent range, survives a long time in a fight) or use actual rooks :) Tech 3's need to be multi role ships not cruiser hulls with battleship tank and insane resists ABC's are clearly T2 in all but name.. remove drone assist mechanic.

Shogi would be really interesting, but aren't the look of the pieces one of the defining aspects of shogi? To be completely honest I don't know if there's a history of shogi pieces coming in different shapes.
Also, how would you deal with promotions? Once again, showing my shogi ignorance because you could of already listed the promotion without my knowing. |

Sounds cool, do you have any screenshots left somewhere? Would love to see it. |

I'm not a purist so I put the look of the pieces down to matter of taste or aesthetics. As for the promotion, that could be a bit of a dilemma. Maybe a separate piece that replaces the non-promoted piece? I don't think there's enough ship models that could be just flipped upside down and still look good. Maybe it could be solved by just having regular shaped shogi pieces but with ships painted on them?

still don't get it, but how would you even play 3-way chess?

I've actually been thinking about the whole promotion issue and I also think regular shape pieces with the ship image would be the best idea. Then on the promoted side you could a T2 ship. Here's how I'd imagine the piece images (with Gallente).
King: Moros Rook: Megathron Rook+: Kronos Bishop: Myrmidon Bishop+: Eos Gold General:Proteus Silver General: Vexor Silver General+: Ishtar Knight: Thorax Knight+: Deimos Lance: Catalyst Lance+: Eris Pawn: Incursus Pawn+: Enyo
