Various types of mino castles are frequently used in furibisha (ranging rock) strategies.
Learn how to storm various types of mino castles is very important to deal with furibisha players. The translation is excellent and the book is well organized.
I typically like the arrow head representation, which is used to indicate the storm direction.
Please translate and publish more shogi books into English. I will definitely support! :-) -

It explains how to storm various types of mino castles and show you how to attack it from four directions: from the side, from the edge, diagonal attack and from the front. This book is great and it will definitely improve your shogi skill.
