Talk:Arimaa/Distribution of Force

Development
Should "Development" be its own page? There is probably a fair amount more to say about development, and I'm not sure it really fits into "Distribution of Force" anyway. Perhaps we should find a game to go through move-by-move, highlighting development. Belteshazzar (discuss • contribs) 07:10, 20 April 2019 (UTC)

In any event, I'm not sure that these examples are helpful. There should be early game positions that show how weak piece advances help stronger pieces. Belteshazzar (discuss • contribs) 03:42, 3 May 2019 (UTC)


 * The section as I originally wrote it was about the value of having a more advanced army than the opponent. This fits well enough on this page, which is about the large-scale position. Perhaps the problem is the title. "Development" has multiple meanings; it could be "advancement". Anyway, the first example seems ok to me.

 * In that first example, Silver's advantage seems far from clear even with an explanation. In the second example, Silver's advantage is clear, but I guess that example isn't necessarily useful overall. Belteshazzar (discuss • contribs) 10:44, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
