9.2: Unusual gobans

There have been several discussions about Go being played on other than the standard (9, 13 and 19 square) gobans.

Whether the desire to play on nonregular gobans comes from the fact that 'normal' Go is too easy is unknown.

For some of these boards, the rules are slightly changed, but in general 'normal' Go can be played on them.

More information and several examples taken from past newsgroup discussions and some internet sites
