Great XiangQi game! I still play it cause it is difficult to find a good XiangQi game even on PC...

A good game, but not really "Battle Chess II", is it? It's just Chinese Chess. The title perhaps the only thing that let me down. That and the fact that I had no understanding of the rules whatsoever.

More people around the world play Chinese Chess than the more familiar international/western version. Chinese Chess itself is a great game and once learned, improves the rook and queen play of anyone.

This game was of great benefit to China.

They had so many left over boxes from unsold copies of this game (due to the fact that nobody could understand it/nobody wanted to play it/nobody wanted to buy it) that they managed to rebuild some sections of the Great Wall.

If Chinese Chess was so good that's what Russian men with beards would now be playing, instead of the version we have all become accustomed to.
