O čem je toďten plk: Re: Handling of perpetual checking/chasing
chessmec: So sorry, I feel shameful for having stolen a deserved victory on your part. I apologize. Could you believe, I completely forgot that rule, because it is the truth.
Fencer: Exactly the same problem as in Shogi arise in the above mentioned game. I play Nxe7, click 'move' and when I return to that game my move isn't played.
Fencer: In the game I just finished with Corwin, he played Cb6-f6 jumping without capturing piece. Well, I think so from memory, because I don't know how to replay a game if that is possible. Please would you check, please?
A site for learning Xiangqi. It contains descriptions and many interactive examples of tactics. These consist of a java applet showing a board and a move list. You can move back and forth amongst the moves and follow the changes on the board.
