I don't have the source, but I remember read the lichess didn't want to implement other board games in their interface.

For XiangQi, I know that you can play it on playok.com (I know the rules and played a few games last time just to get the feeling, but I am more into chess and shogi...).

Yeah I get murdered there. I should learn to get better I am always beaten by computers too.

I just went on playok to play couple of games of xiang qi and... I also got murdered...

Those guys are too good. Did you ever win? Know what I mean by you lost in the first few moves?

I played three games and lost them all. It's as you said, I felt that in the opening they knew something I didn't and they entered quickly in my camp. The strange thing is that when I played last year, I didn't have that feeling at all, the games felt pretty even - I won one game because my opponent resigned after I declined his draw offer.

If you want we can play some games some day. My email is in my profile if you're interested.
