Chinese Chess

I've just read up about it on Wikipedia--seems a remarkable game! Anyone played it?

I've played a few games, but I could never get my head around the tactics... Much the same as Chess itself 🙁

I'm quite keen to give it a try. Wonder if it's on the Internet? Must be. I like that the board has a river.

And only some pieces can cross the river too.

I'm sure there are sites, I seem to remember Crowley suggesting a site a while back for GO, which also did Chinese Chess, but I could be making that up.

[hijack] Go is a fantastic game. I used to play Cribs over the No Name Go Society, and played a few games with the mostly highly skilled college Go society until it went defunct. I've probably played 20 games in my life, but I really enjoy it and I don't currently have access to anyone who plays, so if anyone fancies a game via NNGS, simply download the client (Google it yerself!) and PM me.
