Everyone is very welcome, regardless of strength or experience.

Information on the London Shogi Club, shogi events in or near London, and occasional other stuff. Shogi is Japanese chess, and the key way it differs from regular chess is that when you take your opponent pieces, you keep them, and can 'drop' them back on the board later. It's pretty popular in Japan so you often see it in anime and Japanese art, but it's not very well known in the UK.

Help Wanted (AI Shogi)
I've been given a copy of A.I. Toudai Shogi for the Nintendo DS.
It's great fun, and quite strong once I worked out how to take it off beginner level. However, I don't understand all of the menus, which are, well, in Japanese. Maybe I'll bring it along to the next London meeting to see if anyone understands it better.
Now if only I had a Nintendo DS :)
