Chinese Chess (Xiangqi) pt. 2 - Comparison of More Sets

[@Sphemus]

5:18 My uncle bought me this specific set for me during our trip to Hong Kong. I actually still have the set, & still play the game with my brother to this day.

I just saw a GREAT instructive video showing some opening principles. Highly recommended @

Nice board 3:54

[@AncientChess]

The pieces are now listed as item 221235913395, and the board is 221211823802 on eBay. The pieces are a little different: the style of script is a little more modern -- you'll see if you compare them. Still, a perfect standard playing set. One other thing. In the video I said they were made of Urea, but I think they are properly called 'Acrylic'. I don't really know my plastics, but I do know a great xiangqi set. :)

Oh I see. By the way My new Chinese chess set had arrived today. It was supposed to be a "Journey to the West" set,but it's not. It is the 3 kingdom set.

Where can I buy this set

[@rickknowlton9990]

Thanks for the message. I'm showing a few sets here. Which did you have in mind?

[@AncientChess]

You mean the first set that is shown in this video ... or the first video in this series?

[@zachwilson6017]

what is the first set called on your site?

[@huidezhu1653]

Wow, when will your book come out?

[@huongle-fh8rs]

Huide Zhu it alreday came out

[@AncientChess]

We expect it to come out sometime this summer. The editing process with McFarland is very intensive (and it is a huge book) ... the process has been going on for months. It's already available for pre-order on Amazon (Search: A World of Chess Cazaux) ... though not all the information on the 'pre-listing' is correct (my name is not mentioned as author and the page count of 277 is about half what we are expecting)....
