I cleaned up the HTML, replaced the board image with one generated by the diagram designer, and added more up-to-date information about computer play options. I didn't add an interactive diagram yet, because there is stuff I'd need to figure out, (like how to make the Ferz promote), but would like to do so. If someone wants to whip up a working diagram I'll include it.

Interesting note: I was unable to edit this page through the user-interface because the form that is embedded in the Notes section interferes with the edit submission form. I'm not sure what code to add to isolate the form so it doesn't interfere. For now, in order to change this page, it is necessary to first go into SQL and wipe out the contents of the Notes section (preserve it first!).

Quick Markdown Guide

By default, new comments may be entered as Markdown, simple markup syntax designed to be readable and not look like markup. Comments stored as Markdown will be converted to HTML by Parsedown before displaying them. This follows the Github Flavored Markdown Spec with support for Markdown Extra. For a good overview of Markdown in general, check out the Markdown Guide. Here is a quick comparison of some commonly used Markdown with the rendered result:

Top level header: <H1>

Block quote

Second paragraph in block quote

First Paragraph of response. Italics, bold, and bold italics.

Second Paragraph after blank line. Here is some HTML code mixed in with the Markdown, and here is the same <U>HTML code</U> enclosed by backticks.

Secondary Header: <H2>

  • Unordered list item
  • Second unordered list item
  • New unordered list
    • Nested list item

Third Level header <H3>

  1. An ordered list item.
  2. A second ordered list item with the same number.
  3. A third ordered list item.
Here is some preformatted text.
  This line begins with some indentation.
    This begins with even more indentation.
And this line has no indentation.
