Other Sites

Wikipedia

 Tenjiku Shogi from Wikipedia, the free encyclopaedia. Much more than just a good and fuller account of the rules.>

Colin Adams' book on tenjiku tactics "The Struggle for Survival" available in PDF.
Chapters 2-13 still apply to the new game. Games and movement rules are for the old game.

"Le Shogi exotique" History of Chess... and Tenjiku. Good site but...
The movement rules are for the old game so not valid.

Shogi Variants

 Not for modern Tenjiku (uses old rules) but but for all other variations.. Yes!
