      A friend of mine had a 3D printer, some acrylics, and a lot of time. She modeled and printed the pieces to have a consistent design language!

          It’s all in the Wikipedia link, buddy.

              I actually teach shogi at anime conventions (among other cultural games) in lectures and panels, and it’s always fun to throw a picture of taikyoku shogi onto a slide deck and watch weeaboos panic. :)

    Are the rules the same as normal sized chess or do you make up new ones?

      There’s a Wikipedia link elsewhere in the comments here that you may have missed; it’ll tell you what you want to know, complete with diagrams, better than I could muster.

      I did my best to put good resources forth!
