Hi all Let me first introduce myself: I'm an evolutionary biologist also interested in the history and evolution of chess variants (seeing variants as...
Thanks to all who replied off-board! I now have copies of the pages from "Sekai no Shogi" that describe this very odd variant. Although I can't read Japanese,...
Hello, Will you be posting the rules & pieces moves for this game? I've not found a lot of information about Ko Shogi at all. Is it the same game as "Ko-dai...
It's definitely not the same as Roland's Ko-Dai Shogi. I've never been able to find any historical backing that this variant actually existed; has anyone? This...
Hello folks, Does anyone know what the names of the pieces are in "Ko-dai Shogi" found in Roland Marounek's shogi program, Shogis? Is there any information on...

There are over 400 pieces per player! If Tai was created by some "recreational megalomaniac", who the heck thought up this one? :P The king can move two...
During previous discussions, it was concluded that this game could probably take a lifetime to play. Of course the behaviour of some of the power pieces might...
Hi all I've just uploaded a file (KoShogi.zip), which contains Lynn's transcription of the scans from the book, the first translation, and a diagram I quickly...
Diagram of the set-up has improved a bit, so if you downloaded the zip-file earlier and want to have a better set-up diagram, it's there. Cheers, Lex...

The current intrepretation was extrapolated from scans provided at this Group site. All names and rules were entirely based upon these. Therefore, it should...
The discussion about this particular game has given me an idea. Why not have this Group divide up into two camps, Black and White. Each side would make a...
This would be a cool idea, though I think it might be better to simply find a different site to play it at, and add a link from here. No need to drown out...
