Just a quick note to let you know why I am not making any moves right now.
I'm currently away from home doing sciency stuff at a Synchrotron.

I'm also having to brush up on my understanding of Shogi and Xianqi,
whenever I can. The main problem I think I will have is recognizing the
pieces from the Japanese/Chinese symbols. Can someone tell me if there are
piece sets I can use, which look more like Western Chess pieces?

I hope my time does not run out for any of the games. I'll be back home
on wednesday. I hope I will give my Shogi/Xianqi opponents a decent
challenge.
