Does anyone have a proper explanation for the 3 dashed lines? some of the
implementation of illustrations are confuseing. Does anyone have a better
illustration system? Most of the moves are self explanatory but a few are
confuseing to me.
You see I intend to create a graphical set for the pieces. That way you
could print out the pieces and mount them on cardboard or foamcore. Each
piece would have its name at the bottom edge. a diagram in the middle.
rank at the top and a small row beneath it for starting positions.
Tai Shogi is the original intended game but this seems so much more
massive and amazing. Right now for ease of computer creation I've taken
the images. Listed their english names beside them, starting locations and
I'm trying to decode some of the strange diagrams.
I have a few questions.
the X by itself means its jumps directly to that position?
an x with an arrow. does that mean slide (or jump to space #)or slideing
with jumps permitted?
the arrow with 3 lines through it?
treacherous Fox has arrows going through single step circles..??
if anybody can help this would make things easier.
