This would be fairly insane for Chu, and completely stupid for
Tenjiku. The way to tackle the
length of the game is to play in real time (across the board or via
the Internet).

    Michael> per turn for Tai Shogi and 10 moves per turn for Kyoku
    Michael> Tai Shogi.

On the other hand, for these games it might make them real games
(which they certainly aren't in their present format).
