Do they even understand that it's complicated because it's made by an Asian?!

Like why wouldn't they understand such a simple variant when I could solve quadratic equations while I was in 1st grade?! Are they stupid?!

It's complicated for you because it's made by an Asian or you have brains the size of a soybean.

I think I can sum up the problems of this variant in one sentence: "Owwww, this makes my normalpersonbrain hurt."

In other words: INHUMANLY COMPLICATED; MAKE SIMPLER GAME, PEOPLE HAPPI.

in proper grammar: The game is overcomplicated by sheer number of pieces. The size of the board isn't a huge problem (XXL Chess exists after all) and the split between "land" and "sea" is a cool feature. The problem is that there are, no less than THIRTEEN KINDS OF PIECES! While fairy pieces are cool and all- I've enjoyed experimenting with them myself -it's not a great idea to put this many kinds of them into the game, especially when most of them seem to have been invented by you yourself. In short, main suggestion I have is: swap out most 'land' pieces with ones already in existence, ones made by Komeraidologists (people who've created fairy pieces, word of my invention)- Chess.com's fairy piece engine is a good start, as people will be more familiar with those- or already existing Chess pieces. You can also check Wikipedia's list, though some pieces there may be less well-known.

Is your brain smaller than a soybean?

It's not complicated, it's just a lot of information. That in itself is no reason to disqualify a game.
The amount of information involved in learning a large Shogi variant is much more. Large Shogi variants are not bad games.

I agree.

The manual says, "The Guard has no class". Guards Union is offended for being misunderstood and denigrated.

He was referring to the game Go. I do not mean to offend you, but it seems you're being a little bit hotheaded at the moment.

My apologies.
