Betza notation (extended). The powerful XBetza extension to Betza's funny notation.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

The Chu-Shogi Lion's turn pass can be written as mabK or [K-bK]. But there is no way to enter a turn pass in the Interactive Diagram. Since the Diagram does not enforce turn order, though, you can pass a turn in any Diagram by simply playing two moves for the other side in a row. If you want the AI to play the extra move you can use the Move button. It messes up the game notation, though. Perhaps I should let the notation code detect this, and insert a null move (e.g. --).

I can add that even though the rules in Chu Shogi do allow you to pass a turn in some situations, I so far could not imagine any position where this would be a good move.
