During some down time, I was browsing different variants and came across
this beast on our pages. The stats:
- 36x36 board (1,296 spaces)
- 402 pieces per side
- 209 different types
- 253 different moves
- Each player averages over 1000 moves/game
So far, this is the largest discovered/invented shogi variant. I want to
look over the rules a bit more, but I will be interested in play a game
with somebody if there is anyone out there interested.
Creating a preset would be very time consuming and too big on the screen
for comprehension, so I am thinking an email game might be best. I would
like to play according to the rule set found at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taikyoku_shogi
as they seem to be the most complete set that I can find. If anyone wishes
to join me on this daunting task, I would be most appreciative and
welcoming. If we average a move per day, this will take a couple of years!
Shoot me an email at [email protected] or reply to this, but
please finish the game with me if you plan on playing.
