Shogi variants software

Sort:
HGMuller

I host a free software package on my website based on the WinBoard user interface, configured for Shogi and Shogi variants. Through the two included AIs ('engines') it can play the following variants:

With drops (through the Shokidoki engine):

Shogi (9x9)

Euro-Shogi (8x8)

Tori Shogi (7x7)

Judkins Shogi (6x6)

mini-Shogi (5x5)

 

Without drops (through the HaChu engine):

Heian Shogi (9x9)

Sho Shogi (9x9)

Chu Shogi (12x12)

Dai Shogi (15x15)

Most variants can be played in a western as well as an oriental representation.

Hi Sir, I saw that you made a physical ChuShogi board using stickers of mnemonic tiles. I found your comment on chessvariants website, sharing the file of svg's of all shogi variant's mnemonic tiles. Though it had dai and chu shogi's pieces mixed together (and with names different from that used on wikipedia), so I spent some time looking at each svg and renaming them and found that the promoted versions of the tiles (one with dot in the center indicating that they have been promoted) were missing for some of the pieces. 

I will be very grateful if you can share the file for ChuShogi that you probably used for printing stickers or with svg's for all the pieces including the promoted ones. These could be used in the new initiative of lishogi.com, where after the basic features are done, the team will be adding shogi variants and possibly chushogi, so these mnemonic tiles could really useful for us and the players.
Thanks for your time
