HIDETCHI at 5:10 roughly, you promote the bishop, and then move it out of the top 3 rows and then move it? does this mean that you can promote before, or after you have moved provided that you at some point come into contact with the top 3 rows or enemy camp?

[HIDETCHI]

It moved to 2e from 4c as a Bishop, and then promoted.

A piece can promote when it moves TO or FROM your enemy camp.

HIDETCHI i was thinking about making my own shogi set, i was wondering what kind of wood would be best for making the board and pieces.

(p.s your videos are very helpful thank you.)

@xitpor90 No. Stalemate is a loss for the stalemated player.

@OverNightGaming Only mate with a dropped PAWN is illegal. Any other piece is okay to checkmate with.

those lessons are awesome,you rock!!!!!!!

[OverNightGaming]

I thought dropping pieces into checkmate is illegal that is by dropping a piece you checkmate the opponent straight away
