Chinese Chess also known as Xiang Qi, is a variation on chess that is said to be as old as the original puported to originate in India. This version, originally written in C++ and ported to Java in 1995/6 is one of if not the first chess engines and indeed, one of the very first games written ... [More] in Java. The intent of this project is to improve on the original and add JXTA to create network games. Because of the huge number of players in China and the rest of Asia, Chinese Chess is 'the' most popular board game in the world. Java Version of Xiang Qi / Elephant Chess / Chinese Chess Original Copyright 1994,1995,1996,1998 by Daniel Brookshier and re-released under the creative open source liciense. Elephant chess is similar to International Chess, with a few interesting twists. To play, drag a red piece to a valid move location. Valid moves can be found by moving the mouse over the pieces. The object is to capture the King, located at the top center of the board. Be careful, the computer is a fair player and you must protect your own King! Java Web Start Version Java(tm) Web Start will download the game to your PC so you can play any time without connecting to the Internet. Java(tm) Web Start Version: Elephant Chess (Xiang Qi) To get Java Web Start, go here: Java(tm) Web Start Download Page Introduction to Xiang Qi Xiang Qi (pronounced loosely as: zang che) is THE most played board game in the world. Go anywhere in the orient and you will find this game being played in homes, on trains, cafes, even on the sidewalks of downtown Beijing, China. Elephant chess is similar to International Chess, with a few interesting twists. To play, drag a red piece to a valid move location. Valid moves can be found by moving the mouse over the pieces. The object is to capture the King, located at the top center of the board. Be careful, the computer is a fair player and you must protect your own King! The Pieces King (also called General) Move vertically and horizontally inside the palace. A king can not be moved horizontally into a column that has a free line of sight of the other king. You can use this rule to your advantage to limit the moves of your opponent. Guard Guards move diagonally. The guard lives inside the palace with the king. Elephant Moves at an angle two steps. Similar to a Horse, but with a bigger step. Can be blocked by a piece that occupies the first of the two steps.The piece can move from the position A.I, C.G, I.A, G.C only when there is no piece on the position E. The elephant can NOT cross the river (perhaps it will drown?). A-B-C | | | D-E-F | | | G-H-I Horse (Knight) The piece can move from position A to the position F only when there is no piece on the position C. Piece can move in any direction in the same manner(E to B, B to E, F to A, A to F). The horse, unlike the elephant, can across the river. The horse is used just like the knight in European chess,and is one of the most important pieces. A-B | | C-D | | E-F Cart (Rook) Same as a rook in European chess. Cannon The Cannon is the most bizarre piece in Xiang Qi. The cannon moves like a cart, but can only capture by jumping one piece. The jumped piece can be either color and there are no restrictions on the length of the jump. Only one piece can be jumped and there must be a piece to capture. Soldier (Pawn) The soldier is similar to a pawn in European chess, with a couple of twists. First, the piece moves from home to enemy territory in a straight line. If there is a piece in front of the soldier, it can capture it. After the soldier crosses the river, it may move and capture horizontal. Note: the soldier cannot retreat. The soldier can never backup. Other Rules Queening of Pawns There is no equivalent of queening of a pawn. All pieces remain the same throughout the game. However, the pawn does gain left and right motion when it crosses the river. Castling No equivalent in Xiang Qi. King Line of Sight The kings cannot be allowed to face each other. That means that if the kings are on the same column, the last piece between them cannot be moved (it can be captured). Also, a king cannot move into a column that does not have pieces between the it and the enemy king. If the king is in check and the only move is into the line of sight, the game is checkmate. Regret Regret is an odd thing in Xiang Qi. In almost all but official games and especially when a novice and a master are playing, regret is a mutual acknowledgement that one of the players really goofed. The pieces are returned to the point where the mistake was made. Kibitzing Unlike traditional chess, Xiang Qi is a spectator sport. The reason is mainly because a lot of games are played for money with side bets held by the crowd. Spectators, with money at stake, are apt to call out moves or even reach into the game and move a piece. Other Stuff Want to learn how to play Elephant Chess like a grand master?

Try again because sometimes browsers, like Netscape, need to start out fresh because of fragmented memory. If that does not work, upgrade to the next valid version of your browser.
