Xodul is a tactical and strategy game, which is a variant of chess. This game is inspired on international chess, chinese chess (xiang-qi), and japanese chess (shogi).
In xodul there are 10 different pieces from each other: car, knight, bishop, queen, king, wizard, guard, lance, cannon and pawns. The promotion of pawns can be made accordingly to a new rule, in which the captured pieces are re-used.
