'''Shogi''' (Japanese Chess),<br/>
a chess variant that evolved directly from [[Shatranj]], just like the western [[Chess|chess]]. It is played on 9x9 board. Compared to chess, Shogi pieces have limited mobility, but this is compensated by the fact that captured enemy pieces can be [[Piece Drop|dropped]] on the board as one's own. This leads to the wild, tactical game. Shogi has greater [[Branching Factor|branching factor]] than chess. In 2013Development of Shogi programs has taken slightly different route than in chess programming. The stress is on [[Pattern Recognition|pattern recognition]] and [[Selectivity|selective search]] techniques. However, with the best programs seem at the level advent of the best human professional players [[NNUE]] <ref>[http[Yu Nasu]] ('''2018''').

Development of =Pieces & Moves= Shogi programs pieces capture as they move. <span id="Promotion"></span>Promotion is possible with all pieces except King and Gold General - or already promoted pieces with changed move options.When such a piece moves to, from or inside (but no [[Piece Drop|drops]]) the promotion zone, that is the three opponent's back-ranks, it has taken slightly different route than in chess programmingthe option to promote. The stress Promotion is on mandatory for the forward only pieces of Knight, Lance or Pawn with no more moves after moving to the 9th or 8th (Knight) rank.Pieces indicate their promotion state by turning the piece over after the corresponding move, revealing the character of the promoted piece. A drop of a captured piece always appears with the unpromoted side up. [[Pattern RecognitionFILE:ShogiBoardAndPieces.jpg|none|border|pattern recognitiontext-bottom]] Shogi board and pieces, together with their starting position and moves <ref>Image from [http://shogihub.com/players/431 Yoshinori Kimura] ('''1999''').
