with Wonderland Style, only the caster has the pieces (and can summon all or individual pieces)

with Chess Master Style, you can have 32 people or 32 pieces or and combination of the two, so long as there are 16 representations of pieces on both sides (the caster can choose to expend the extra magic to create the pieces missing on the opponent's side or force the opponents to expend the magic to create the missing pieces)

once Chess Master Style is invoked it cannot start without both sides having 16 and cannot end until one side can claim Check Mate
