I just loved the Japanese. You should show us the game and explain the rules...We could get a long distance tournament going.

Wow I bet they thought this will be easy, but knowing you Naut I would place bets on you after a few games.

I once played chess with my cousin Richard. Not long after that
he took vows and became a Franciscan brother. Don't know if there's any connection.

I wonder how bringing in the pieces captured plays into the strategy of the game.
