Medieval Style Chess Set

Kingdom Chess Set – Medieval Style ♟️

Bring a dark medieval fantasy atmosphere to your chess board with this detailed character-based chess set.
Each piece was designed with a strong silhouette and realistic proportions to create an immersive “kingdom vs kingdom” appearance inspired by classic European medieval aesthetics and fantasy tabletop worlds.

The set combines elegant royal figures, armored warriors, bishops, towers, and stylized horses with a dramatic black/white contrast that looks especially striking when printed in matte filament.

Design Style / Epoch

This chess set is heavily inspired by:

• Medieval European kingdoms
• Gothic fantasy aesthetics
• High medieval armor and royal clothing
• Dark fantasy tabletop miniatures
• Classic castle architecture

The pieces are intentionally more sculptural and decorative than traditional tournament chess pieces, making the set ideal for:

• Display pieces
• Collector sets
• Fantasy-themed interiors
• Gift prints
• Resin-style FDM showcase prints

The alternating black and white setup creates a strong cinematic look, especially with marble, matte, silk, or stone-effect filaments.

Included Pieces

The set includes all classic chess figures with unique fantasy styling:

• King
• Queen
• Bishop
• Knight
• Rook
• Pawn

All pieces are optimized for FDM printing without supports.

Print Profiles

There are 4 included print profiles:

1. Normal

Standard lightweight version with balanced print time and strength.

2. Heavy (50% Infill)

Heavier premium version with increased weight and stability.

3. Magnet Version (6x3 mm)

Includes a cavity for optional 6x3 mm round magnets.

4. Heavy Magnet Version (6x3 mm + 50% Infill)

Maximum stability and premium feel.

Optional Magnet Installation

The magnet versions are designed for 6x3 mm round magnets.

To ensure every piece has the same magnetic orientation:

Recommended Method

1. Stack all magnets together.
2. Mark one side of the entire stack with a permanent marker.
3. Insert every magnet with the marked side facing:
   • either upward
   • or downward

The important part is consistency across all pieces.

Important - Optional Magnets

If magnets are inserted with mixed polarity:

• some pieces may repel each other
• some pieces may attract unexpectedly

Using the same orientation for every piece prevents this issue.

A small drop of super glue is recommended to secure the magnets permanently.
