When requesting for a mod. No coder will know what you want unless you explain it more clearly.

^ it's a japanese board game that I would like to implement into my forum....

It's a Japanese version of chess. It could be done if there is a chess mod. After that what would be needed to be done is change the pieces, starting positions, the board, and the rules of the game.

Sounds like an interesting game though. Now all I need to do is find someone with that game.

I have been working on a chess game, as well as a couple others. Chess is maybe 75% done. How different are the rules and the way the pieces move?

well there are pieces that move in the same way as regular chess but there are extra pieces that move in completely new ways.

That wiki link that was posted has a lot of information on it. If you read it you will get a very good understanding how the game works and the way the board is set up. Also there are promotions for the pieces so theres something else to add.

but I don't know how to edit it for capacity for shogi :/

Now we are getting somewhere. You found a chess mod for vBulletin and a site that gives you a better understanding of the game. Now all thats left is someone to create the mod.

Any takers.

It's a interesting looking game, and I might consider it as I am doign a strategy games pack, but I really don't see there being a lot of interest for it as most people will have never even heard of it...

Yes very true but what about the people that go through all those flash game sites. A lot of the people that go through them just click on a game and say how do I play read the instructions and if they want to then play.

As they say "You build it they will come"
