The Three Kingdoms period (263-222 BC) is perhaps the bloodiest and most eulogized period of Chinese history. The best known account of this period is the historical novel ''Romance of the Three Kingdoms'' written in the 14th Century and the subject of numerous films, TV shows, manga, and anime. This deluxe edition Chinese chess set contains the major cast of characters from ''Romance of the Three Kingdoms.'' Unlike many character theme chess games in which characters are simply duplicated in different colors on each side, this set contains an entirely different case from one side to the other, giving the game a unique level of interest. Each figurine has their chess piece Chinese character molded at the base so you know which figurine is which piece. The map of the Three Kingdoms world is printed on the surface of the board adding a sense of epic battle to your game. This character version of the incredibly popular game of Chinese chess has sparked a new interest for Chinese chess in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China, and we are proud to be among the first to bring them to the United States.
