    I've seen this video a while back, but this appears to have an awesome new intro. Well done Rick (and whomever else). Always a fan.

      Thanks Jeff, great to hear from you! My daughter is studying digital animation in high school, and I hired her to put that intro section together. I'll be using it in other videos too. More coming up soon I hope

      It's always a pleasure. Hard for me sometimes to make the time to create them. But I love every minute of it, and love the ongoing responses and discussions. Send comments any time. I don't know if you're referring to this one, but I did just publish a new Chinese chess video tonight ruclips.net/video/kSL7JErRMx8/видео.html

    Hey Rick, I found something, that might be interesting for you. I just discovered, that there was a game called Wehrschach or Tak Tic. It was invented during the 2. WW in Germany. Maybe you know this game already but for me it’s new. Regards from Germany

    Just a tremendous video! What a fascinating history lesson. Loved it. Rick (who better to ask this to?) do you have a favorite iteration of chess, or perhaps a couple-three at the very top? (Shogi? European? Xiangqi? A more modern variant? Etc.) I'd love to know!

    • @rickknowlton9990
      @rickknowlton9990 2 года назад

      Thanks for asking. These days, I'm particularly fond of shogi. It's so complex, it always gives you a lot to think about, and it is hard to say what the best moves are -- there is so much to consider!
      But I do like the other variants very much. During the first part of the pandemic, I spent many hours watching Cambodian chess games (search Khmer chess on RUclips). Although it seems like a simple chess to get started, the middle games and endgames are complicated in ways unimaginable in other variants.

      You ?
      Maybe we can talk on Facebook.
      It is unlikely that our ideas are identical or even similar.
      I do not steal ideas. Besides you have this conversation as proof we met.
      If they are similar anyway we could join forces.

    WHOA!! I never thought Game of the Generals is featured here on 5:20 . As a GG player, as we fondly call it here in the Philippines, I am amazed.

      Yes! The book has a whole section on that family of games, a very interesting spin-off from the chess concept
