We're chess nuts, but let's face it - we're not GMs (yet). And English isn't our first language either. That's why we're double-checking all the card content before the launch. We might've blundered somewhere, so if you spot any issues, give us a shout. We're aiming to create the best game out there, and we need everyone's eagle eyes to make it happen.
