Xiangqi, or Chinese chess, is a two-player strategy game where each player controls an army of 16 pieces, including generals, advisors, elephants, horses, chariots, cannons, and soldiers. The primary objective is to checkmate the enemy general.
The game is played on a board nine lines wide and ten lines long, with pieces placed on intersections rather than squares. Special rules include the cannon's jumping capture, the restriction on generals facing each other directly, and designated areas like the river and palace that influence piece movement.
If you love strategy games and classic board games, Xiangqi offers a deep and challenging experience. Master the movement rules of each piece, anticipate your opponent’s strategies, and aim for victory on the battlefield!
