You play with words. Of course, anything can be a chess piece, even 3 bamboo rods like in Pilipines. Figurines like in Warhammer can also be used to play chess but for chess and chess variants I think the best is Staunton-like pieces. Staunton's style is remarkable because it is at the good balance point between something purely abstract and very descriptive pieces like figurines.
