The other thing that would bother me is that if you're playing black, you have to play upside down. I wonder if there would be a way to "flip the board".

Probably could make a board on another sheet with a formula that points to the opposite side of the board

That sounds like a nightmare of VBA code. I love it!

I can think of 1½ ways to do that that wouldn't involve VBA.

They WOULD be a nightmare though.

Lol. Fair enough. I'm not sure which would be worse.

In the spirit of anarchy chess, I MAY need to find out. For science.

Did you find out?

Otherwise I may

I think sheets will let you flip the text completely. Although then issues with using mouse when looking at it from that side
