About Xiangqi
Chinese Chess board game against a computer opponent. To win you need to capture the general of your opponent.
How to Play
Shift your pieces according to their specific movement rules. The General can only move one square at a time within the palace. Mandarins can only move diagonal moves within the palace. Ministers move exactly two squares diagonally and cannot move to the opponent's side. Knights move one square straight and then one square diagonally, if not impeded by adjacent pieces. Chariots move any number of squares straight, making them powerful attackers. Catapults move like chariots but must capture by hopping over exactly one piece. Pawns move forward one square and attack sideways after crossing the river. Capture the opponent's general to win the game. Strategize your moves carefully to checkmate the computer opponent.
