I played Hasami shogi on clubhouse games. I don’t see the connection to shogi. Hasami shogi is like othello(reversi). Instead of flipping pieces you take them off the board. The one with no pieces left loses. Why is it called Hasami shogi? Does it have a connection to shogi?

> Mark,

It has been traditionally played using shogi pieces in Japan. That's why it's called Hasami Shogi. As you see, it can be played without using shogi pieces.
