This mod adds chess pieces into Minecraft. They are crafted in Stonecutter
with Block of Quartz and Blackstone. And you can grab pieces by right
clicking them with an empty hand, or capture a piece by right clicking one with
a piece in the main hand (replace the piece block with the one in the main
hand).
