    Chinese Chess - Travel Size 3D MODEL ONLY Makerwiz VIEW IN BROWSER updated 6. 2. 2021 | published 6. 2. 2021 Summary This is a full set of Chinese Chess suitable for travelling. We shrunk down the original design to 60% and added a new lid with "Chinese Chess" in traditional Chinese characters. We also added a new chess board graphics file suitable for printing on paper or laser etching/cutting onto wood. Enjoy! Here is a brief intro about Chinese Chess from Wikipedia: 8C 68 "Xiangqi (Chinese: 61 CB ; pinyin: xiàngqí), also called Chinese chess, is a strategy board game for two players. It is one of the most popular board games in China, and is in the same family as Western (or international) chess, chaturanga, shogi, Indian chess and janggi. Besides China and areas with significant ethnic Chinese communities, xiangqi (cờ tướng) is also a popular pastime in Vietnam. The game represents a battle between two armies, with the object of capturing the enemy's general (king). Distinctive features of xiangqi include the cannon (pao), which must jump to capture; a rule prohibiting the generals from facing each other directly; areas on the board called the river and palace, which restrict the movement of some pieces (but enhance that of others); and placement of the pieces on the intersections of the board lines, rather than within the squares."

  • ANALYSIS and IMPLEMENTATION of the GAME ARIMAA Christ-Jan
    ANALYSIS AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE GAME ARIMAA Christ-Jan Cox Master Thesis MICC-IKAT 06-05 THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE OF KNOWLEDGE ENGINEERING IN THE FACULTY OF GENERAL SCIENCES OF THE UNIVERSITEIT MAASTRICHT Thesis committee: prof. dr. H.J. van den Herik dr. ir. J.W.H.M. Uiterwijk dr. ir. P.H.M. Spronck dr. ir. H.H.L.M. Donkers Universiteit Maastricht Maastricht ICT Competence Centre Institute for Knowledge and Agent Technology Maastricht, The Netherlands March 2006 II Preface The title of my M.Sc. thesis is Analysis and Implementation of the Game Arimaa. The research was performed at the research institute IKAT (Institute for Knowledge and Agent Technology). The subject of research is the implementation of AI techniques for the rising game Arimaa, a two-player zero-sum board game with perfect information. Arimaa is a challenging game, too complex to be solved with present means. It was developed with the aim of creating a game in which humans can excel, but which is too difficult for computers. I wish to thank various people for helping me to bring this thesis to a good end and to support me during the actual research. First of all, I want to thank my supervisors, Prof. dr. H.J. van den Herik for reading my thesis and commenting on its readability, and my daily advisor dr. ir. J.W.H.M. Uiterwijk, without whom this thesis would not have been reached the current level and the “accompanying” depth. The other committee members are also recognised for their time and effort in reading this thesis.

  • Inventaire Des Jeux Combinatoires Abstraits
    INVENTAIRE DES JEUX COMBINATOIRES ABSTRAITS Ici vous trouverez une liste incomplète des jeux combinatoires abstraits qui sera en perpétuelle évolution. Ils sont classés par ordre alphabétique. Vous avez accès aux règles en cliquant sur leurs noms, si celles-ci sont disponibles. Elles sont parfois en anglais faute de les avoir trouvées en français. Si un jeu vous intéresse, j'ai ajouté une colonne « JOUER EN LIGNE » où le lien vous redirigera vers le site qui me semble le plus fréquenté pour y jouer contre d'autres joueurs. J'ai remarqué 7 catégories de ces jeux selon leur but du jeu respectif. Elles sont décrites ci-dessous et sont précisées pour chaque jeu. Ces catégories sont directement inspirées du livre « Le livre des jeux de pions » de Michel Boutin. Si vous avez des remarques à me faire sur des jeux que j'aurai oubliés ou une mauvaise classification de certains, contactez-moi via mon blog (http://www.papatilleul.fr/). La définition des jeux combinatoires abstraits est disponible ICI. Si certains ne répondent pas à cette définition, merci de me prévenir également. LES CATÉGORIES CAPTURE : Le but du jeu est de capturer ou de bloquer un ou plusieurs pions en particulier. Cette catégorie se caractérise souvent par une hiérarchie entre les pièces. Chacune d'elle a une force et une valeur matérielle propre, résultantes de leur capacité de déplacement. ELIMINATION : Le but est de capturer tous les pions de son adversaire ou un certain nombre. Parfois, il faut capturer ses propres pions. BLOCAGE : Il faut bloquer son adversaire. Autrement dit, si un joueur n'a plus de coup possible à son tour, il perd la partie.

  • Rick Knowlton Author of the Website, Ancientchess.Com
    Presentation to the Chess Collectors International Meeting, Princeton, NJ, May 2009 Rick Knowlton Author of the website, AncientChess.com The chess we play today is over 500 years old. Our modern rules were born in Italy or Spain, toward the end of the 15th century. This new “chess of the rabid queen” quickly replaced older versions throughout Europe. Since that time, our chess has developed a tradition of literature and analysis far beyond that of any other board game. But this modern European chess was never the only chess. Looking a few centuries back into our history, and expanding our view across neighbor- ing continents, we can see chess as a cross-cultural phenomenon with a wide range of traditions. In effect, these other variants of chess may be- come a window into the distant reaches of time and culture. Let’s take a brief look at some of the world‘s strongest chess traditions. Ancient Chess Chess was already being played in Persia when Muslim armies con- quered that area in the 7th century. It quickly spread through the Muslim world, and on into southern Europe. This chess, known in Arabic as shatranj, differed from the modern game in that its queen (then a king’s advisor) only moved one space diagonally, and the bishop (then an elephant) moved only two spaces diagonally. The con- ventional pieces were simplified forms representing the members of the ancient army (chariot, horse, elephant, etc.) Chinese Chess Chinese chess, xiangqi (“shyahng-chee”), is probably played by more people than any other board game.
