Here. Were you expecting more?

Deconstruction planner is handy to move individual pieces. Color Coding mod was used to improve the visuals, but will work with vanilla concrete / stone tiles too. BP not included, as it isn't too hard to recreate.

Have to credit Provet too, my favorite partner in projects of various levels of silliness.

Just wait until a math-wizard comes and recreates Deep Blue with combinators. :D

This is pretty cool actually. I feel like it would take forever to actually play a game this way, but still cool idea nonetheless. :p

Meh, a game of chess already takes forever.

It's not -that- long. You can order a bot to pick up a single piece with the deconstruction planner.

Well, I'm a layman and nowhere near your expertise in circuitry and combinators... but I could do that. *proud*
