Right-clicking or even running "/cancelaura control piece" did not work last week. I tried all of that in here before posting. It keeps you in combat, you can hear something invisible attacking you. I could drop combat but the Horde side of the board had already killed all the pieces. Unable to reset the instance even days later going back in.

Using the command after a piece is lost to the void won't do anything.
What you hear attacking you is actually one of the event bunnies responsible for the whole deal and I think is one of the actual causes (or at least symptoms) of the issue.
For those still having this issue, disable ElvUI before you start the event and you should be good to go. Seems this is something to do with ElvUI (or an addon it uses) and not with Blizzard and/or the game itself.
Good luck!
Good luck!
This still has not been fixed. Wtf Blizzard. Seriously.
Do not click on portrait and click dismiss, bye bye Llane or other pawn.
Dismiss the buff on the top right and pawn should stay.

It's still broken. Just tried today. First time, failed.Then the event just kept going even though all of the pieces were dead. Second time, (after logging out for an hour and coming back) pieces disappeared after dismissing.
Same !@#$, cannot reset
Bumping cause lol
Just tried today still bugged.
Bump.
Disabling ElvUI after encountering the bug had no reset-like effect. Still bugged.
It seems that activating the King pieces works as intended, but abandoning any piece destroys it without counting as a kill (as others have reported). If the King piece is abandoned by a player, even a complete wipe of other friendly pieces will not end the encounter, although enemy pieces do cease movement (Medivh continues to cheat).
Edit: to lend credence to the idea that a UI issue is somehow related, coming into range of the encounter debuff (silence) prevents one from using the "log out" or "exit game" buttons/commands.

Disabled all addons and event worked fine today. Temporary solution till Blizz fixes the bug.
Ugh I wish I knew this before I attempted the chest event. T_T
Just did it.. Still broken..
Yep, just tried the old chess event and I am having the same bug. I actually tried moving the big dudes with wings and after I moved then and exited, they disappeared from the game entirely... They just vanished. They weren't in the death pool either, so I don't know where they went. Every one of my chess pieces are dead as far as I can tell and the event will not reset.
Ditto. Disappearing bs still happening.
Same issue here. King disappeared after exiting on first turn.
Seriously this is still fking broken? I am trying to get the Gorefiend mog from the last boss and can't get past the chess event...
Same ever since I got the tusks of mannoroth, but GG now
It has been five whole months and Blizzard can not send one guy to fix this one glitch that would what, at most take an hour to fix? I don't know why this fight is not even skippable yet.
Oh and if this was a glitch to level fast or exploit anything it would be hotfixed within an hour.
I do understand that there is an expansion rushing out for next year but... geez we are not playing that right now.

I am stuck inside Kara now, the game is lost but the pieces are still on the board and Medivh is still cheating. I can't exit or reset the board. Blizzard, please fix this!

That might not happen considering it would likely hurt some nostalgic people's feelings.
