Haengma

PageType: Path   Difficulty: Beginner   Keywords: Tactics

Haengma is a Korean word which means roughly the way the stones move. The term is used to describe various connections and their implications. Some connections are strong, but move across the board slowly (not gaining much territory), while the faster connections are weaker.

The six basic Haengma are:

Strong (but slow)

Average

Fast (but weaker)


SAS: Is this really what haengma means. I was under the impression that it means roughly the same as Japanese suji, which is much more general than what is listed above.

What about citing great parts of the haengma threads on rec.games.go? --RobertJasiek

SAS: I'm not sure how useful the rec.games.go threads are, but here are Google links to three of them:

Stefan: I've organised large parts of the rec.games.go discussion on HaengmaDiscussion. Also there are some first thoughts on how to bring this down from the conceptual level to the practical level. I hope we can build a good discussion around this, because it's unknown and exciting stuff (to me at least).

Charles Matthews I'm trying a different approach with a page what actions the stones are doing. See also elementary moves.
