A Shogi tournament in Detroit - possibly

On October 2, 2010, I will be hosting a Chess tournament in the Detroit suburb of Auburn Hills.

I have always been interested in games other than Chess, but with special emphasis on international and ancient varieties of Chess.  At the Chess tournament, I would like to include a section for playing Shogi, the Japanese variant of Chess.

Of course, a tournament needs players.  If you live anywhere in the neighborhood, and might be interested in playing in this tournament, drop me a line, here or at my email, dave @ gamesinmichigan.com.  If we have enough players, I will include a section.

This will be a rather casual event.  No big prizes.  No huge entry fees.  Just a chance to get together on a Saturday and play Chess or Shogi.

If there is insufficient interest in a tournament, I will still have boards and rules for Shogi, Xiangqi, and some other Chess variants and other abstract strategy games, ancient and modern, available for play in the tournament skittles room.
