Yes, I sent Chinese symbols to fencer but it cannot use them
without modifying them.
I thus proposed others of them to him but it did not answer me. Consequently, I do not insist any more.

Subject: Re: About the Chinese symbols

If I send you separate images (at the format JPG for example) representing each piece, you could use them?

Subject: About the Chinese symbols

I note that, for the moment, we do not have Asian players who came played xiangqi on Brainking. It is probable that it will be the case as long as we will not have the possibility of choice between the Western symbols and the Chinese symbols for the representation of the pieces. That is a pity very because we deprive ourselves of the knowledge of the very good players to this game.

OK, thanks!
I ordered the pieces on eBay. I thus will wait to know their diameter.

redsales:
If we consider the intersections of the chessboard of chess, we have of them 9x9. For Xiangqi, we needs 9x10 with the river. Therefore, if we use a chessboard of chess, we will miss the river. I rather plan to use a plywood plate on which I will trace the lines. But I would like to know dimensions to be given to this plate. Do you know the most suitable dimensions?

Caissus:

Caissus, I am interested by this purchase me too.
Can you say to me if that set is sold the pieces alone or there is the board with?
If there is a board, which are external dimensions?
If there is no board, how will you proceed for you to get one of them?
