Xiangqi with various new pieces
This article is about a collection of various Xianqi based games created by Vitya Makov. These games (with the eexception of modern Xiangqi) add an extra heavy piece in the mix with the goal of making the game more attacking. The first game invented was dragon Xinagqi, then sparrow Xiangqi, archer Xiangqi, then modern Xiangqi (which features two vaos), and finally maorider Xiangqi, which features the maorider piece initially invented by the author for maorider chess. To these Florea Aurelian has added fox Xiangqi which adds a fox (with the fox name also chosen by Vitya Makov) to the normal Xiangqi mix.
