Forum Xiangqi: KhrivenilSSP VS Forum Users.

Since you can play chess in the forum, why not play other types of board games? In the past few days, influenced by Tracy-Mechanic, I have decided to play a game of Chinese chess with all the forum users.

All Xiangqi notation you post here must follow the notation system of the World Xiangqi Federation(WXF for short). First, You write the piece type(one of P, C, R, N, E, F, K, which means Pawn, Cannon, Chariot, Knight, Elephant, Advisor and General). Then is its starting file number. Then is the operation(One of +, - or =). And finally ending file number, but for the forward and backward of chariot or cannon it is how many steps it moved. If there are two pieces(for example, two pawns) in one line, the furthest one will be marked with + and one that closest to you will be marked by -. In this case we don't write the starting file, but use this mark for the second place. If it is three or even more(up to 5 because each player has 5 pawns), the closest one is 1, then is 2, and so on, and the furthest one is 5. In this case we put this to the head and hide the starting file. Chinese WXF is also supported, you can see it at here: https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/67939221?ivk_sa=1024320u

Now I goes first: E3+5(相三进五). It's your turn now. Everyone can make the next move. Have fun!

Note: If need, you can use a Xiangqiboard to show the game. If you made a check, add an asterisk after the move. If you made a checkmate, use hashtag instead!

I'm Playing Xiangqi, Not Chess. If You Move 1. ... e5 Then Go To Tracy There. 我有充分的理由怀疑你不会下中国象棋。

{ if i got that right you play elephant opening Ec1-e3 in chess notation }

I play Ch8-e8,
my left wing cannon to the general's file.

C8=5

{ cannon (C) from file 8 (8) horizontal move (=) to general's file 5 (5) }
then in your way of writing it, i guess.

[edit] - only now i see it's the same as tracy's very good choice, tracy! X-D ..keeping the cannon on the right wing where now his elephant is gone away
