NAME

Games::Shogi::Heian - Piece descriptions and initial configuration for Heian era Shogi

SYNOPSIS

  use Games::Shogi::Heian;
  $Game = Games::Shogi::Heian->new;
  $piece = $Game->board()->[2][2];
  print @{$Game->neighbor($piece);
  print $Game->english_name('c'); # 'Copper General'

DESCRIPTION

Heian Shogi is a slightly older form of Shogi, with the major differences being the lack of the Bishop and Rook, and apparently not allowing drops. Other than that it's largely the same as regular Shogi.
