| | Janggi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Janggi is one of a family of strategic board games of which Western chess, Japanese Shogi, and the more similar Chinese Xiangqi are also members. | | | Janggi is sometimes fast paced due to the jumping cannons and the long range elephants, but professional games most often last for over 100 moves and is thus most often slower than western chess. | | | Janggi is native to Korea and is therefore sometimes called Korean chess. |

| | Janggi is a great game and is different enough from XiangQi to make the strategy/tactics of the game much different. | | | Each side is restricted to the rules appropriate for that side - Janggi cannons do not jump/take the opponent's cannons, though the XiangQi cannons do, etc. It's a fun game to play every once in a while. | | | My son and I sometimes play 'Korea vs. China.' Basically it is Korean chess on one side, Chinese Chess on the other. |

| | The best thing is for players of XiangQi to become familiarized with Jangki, and for players of Jangki to become familiarized with XiangQi; then they may make an informed decision about whether and when to play one or the other. | | | The Jangki elephant moves rather like a super-horse, and the footsoldiers can move side-to-side before crossing the center divide of the board. | | | On 9-Feb-2002, David H Li wrote: > Changgi (Janggi) began as an exact copy of Xiangqi (when the latter was > invented in China in 203 BCE), save moves within the palace and, later, > with the addition of cannon, moves of the cannon as well. |
