Chu Shogi
A Japanese chess variant played on a 12×12 board, with each player controlling 46 pieces. The objective is to capture the opposing King and, if applicable, Crown Prince; unlike modern Shogi, captured pieces are not dropped back into play. The larger battlefield features distinctive pieces such as the Drunk Elephant, Phoenix, Kylin, Free Boar, Flying Ox, and the powerful Lion, each with its own movement abilities.
