    Does anyone enjoy playing Chinese chess ( xiangqi ) ?

    For an introduction please see; http://www.crockford.com/chess/xiangqi.html

    I started playing it when I lived in Japan and not when I was staying in China (ironically). Now I'm living in Korea and play the Korean variant which is called Janggi. It's almost the same but some rules are different and the board is slightly different.

    I highly recommend it and it should take no more than a half an hour for a Chess player to familiarise themselves with the rules.
