[edit] Can be tried with Go equipment
This would be easy to try with go equipment, black and white markers on a 19x19 grid. (Perhaps these particular dimensions are not historical, but convenient for just this reason. Is there a link for archaeological evidence?) One might use a coin for the King Ship. If you try it on an internet Go server, note that the diagrams are labelled without the letter "i" in Go, so the King Ship starting position is "J 10" not "i 10" and the last column is "t" not "s".

[edit] 19x19 vs. 18x18
Yeah, I would absolutely say that Chess is played on a 9x9 board. Because in Alea Evangelii it's not the squares that matter, it's the lines. Danjel 17:47, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
