Here is my print-able 'westernized' version of the Taikyoku Shogi Set.
The movement patterns are based off of the descriptions I found here and
from wikipedia. Some pieces I know are somewhat oddly described or given a
differnt movement type via combineing the move 'this way OR this way'
together so those overlapping 'directions' are combined. The entire set
is available for download at the following location. All images are to
scale for print out based on an 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper with 1/2 side
margins and 1 inch top & bottom margins. The pages have 'corner dots'
which prevent 'streach/resize' programs from adjusting the final
image's size after cropping off what it percieves as 'blank' space.
This keeps all pages the exact same size each time it's printed. The only
exception is the 'title, icon legend, and editors notes' pages which are
all in an image format.
Please give me some feedback and tell me what you think. Feel free to
distribute the set online. All that I request is that it is left unaltered
and kept together in the same compressed 'zip' file complete with all
pages including the title, icon legend, and editors notes pages.
