Charles Gilman's most welcomed comments regarding the original Ferz-King not being a good choice, made their way to a three-way conversation between Joe Joyce, Jeremy Good, and myself. After the conversation we all agreed that an 'Old Monkey' would be a good replacement for the King. That piece is like a Silver Shogi General, but turned upside down. So an Old Monkey has now replaced the King, and I anticipate no additional changes to the game. Thank you, gentlemen. Gary
