Kasanari Shogi (Stacking Shogi)

It’s a pdf file, so I can’t show a picture, but it looks very nice.
A Zillions version is well underway (using stacks made of separate pieces).

A quote:
“Kasanari (Stacking) Shogi was inspired by the large, historical Shogi variants with their hundreds of different pieces, using, for the most part, combinations of a few simple directions. The stacking and flipping mechanics of Kasanari Shogi allow you to build myriad combinations using essentially three types of pieces.”

Kasanari Shogi has been implemented on the Axiom Game Engine.
