The '''chess table''' is a piece of [[recreation]] furniture that provides cerebral recreation when used by colonists, as well as small trickle of [[Skills#Intellectual|intellectual skill]] experience. 

It is the equivalent to the [[Tech levels|neolithic]] [[Game-of-Ur board]], and only available to factions of Medieval tech level or above.

== Acquisition ==
Chess tables can only be constructed by [[Scenario_system#New Tribe vs New Arrivals|New Arrivals]]. They require {{Required Resources}} and {{Ticks|{{P|Work To Make}}}} of work. [[Scenario_system#New Tribe vs New Arrivals|New Tribes]] can never construct chess tables, and must instead have the exclusive ability to construct [[game-of-Ur board]]s.

They are also available from [[Outlander]] [[traders]] and [[faction base]]s, and as [[quest]] rewards.

== Summary ==
{{Stub|section=1|reason=General stub, also number for experience rate}}
Chess tables must have chairs directly adjacent to it to be used by up to two colonists. Sometimes a colonist will play chess alone, which gives the same recreation. Chess improves the player's [[Skills#Intellectual|Intellectual skill]] at a meager rate of 0.002 XP per [[tick]], or {{#expr: 60*0.002}} XP per real-time second.

== Analysis ==
Compared to other recreation items, the chess table uses twice the materials of it's tribal equivalent, the [[Game-of-Ur board|game-of-Ur board]], but has a significantly higher base recreation power ({{%|{{P|Recreation Power}}}} vs. {{%|{{Q|Game-of-Ur board|Recreation Power}}}}). It is advisable to replace any game-of-Ur boards with a chess table as soon as possible, so long as the boards are not of a sufficently higher quality to make up for the deficit. 

The chess table is a very cheap option for intellectual play and gives a significant amount of recreational power at higher crafting levels, but does not produce as much cerebral play value as a [[poker table]]. It does not require cloth, however, and is an acceptable substitute until cloth can be grown or traded for a poker table. 

It also provides 33% more [[Intellectual]] skill XP than the [[Game-of-Ur board]].
