good cards however you may want to change Xiangqi Millitary Advisor effect so it summons a Xiangqi monster other than Xiangqi Millitary Advisor else the marshal monster will be almost unfairly difficult to destroy, but either way awesome cards

[Wyhe]

Thanks for telling me that.I've made Marshal's into a non-special summon monster to counter that.

I play Xiangqi, and the piece names that I find most people recognize are:

 

Marshal --> General

Military Advisor --> Guard

Domestic Advisor --> Scholar

 

The cards are good, but they need a theme effect to pull them together. They're a bit boring otherwise. 7/10
