I looked at there map and it was really all custom scripting.. I really want to stay away from that if possible.

You must numerize all your fields like this:

• Set Field[1] = region001
• Set Field[2] = region002
• Set Field[3] = region003

The key is in developing system that can recognize field coordinates. When you do that, it will be easy to move your units (pieces) around.

Ehh.. just make a region for every chess square..? =O

As that regions have the same size, you don't need to make rects.
You can just check the distanc between points.
And, map a chess-type maps are rather hard and contains make leaks.
I don't recommend you to make it on GUI.

Then kiss your chess map good buy, as all good maps uses atleast some jass coding. Honestly, what is so bad about it? Afterall GUI converts to JASS anyway.

QTF, additionally JASS is nothing new to learn, just the writing is diffrent because its more like word, not like a puzzle with GUI.

Afterall I can only say its good to have been changed to jass at all.
