How to playThe general is the king — trap it and you win.

1Move with purposeThe chariot (车) and cannon (炮) are your heavy hitters. Develop them before pushing pawns forward.
2Mind the riverSoldiers (兵/卒) gain sideways moves after crossing. Elephants (相/象) and the general never cross the river.
3Watch the flying generalThe two generals may never face each other on an open file — use it to win or to defend.
4Climb the ladderEvery win moves your Elo across the Duel family. Weekly reset keeps it honest.
