You may want to look at chess sets that are used for the visually impaired.

The pieces have a small peg in the base that plugs into a hole in the board.

This allows the visually impaired player to feel where the pieces are without knocking them over.

The sighted player uses the same board.

You might be able to attach magnets to the figure bases and use metal sheet under the gaming board.
