No worries buddy.  Out of curiosity, how old are you?

I'm fourteen.

I kind of gather that you are in high school, and if so, I'm impressed by your maturity.

Awww, thanks :D

I mean it :)

Anyway, sounds like a plan.  I'm glad you're open to these variants and are willing to try this again.  I'm not as familiar with this as regular shogi, so I don't have much strategy to offer.  

I'll do my best. N-4d

From what I've seen, the knight seems to be a far more valuable piece in the early game then in regular Shogi. I think one of my biggest problems with the small variants will be using my normally weaker pieces effectively and not worrying so much about the bishop and rook.

 You know, I'm learning the same thing as we go.  The knight can be kind of devastating against the other pieces in such close quarters when used properly.
