Weekly Challenge 170: Grass is Greener

Win a game of Xiangqi vs @PS-Greedy-Two-Move (or @PST-Greedy-Tom) with the largest number of pieces ending the game on the opponent's side of the river.

Adjudication Criteria:
1. Most pieces (both colours) on the opponent's side of the river (the side with your opponent's King)
2. Least pieces (both colours) on your side of the river (the side with your King)
3. Fewest moves (ply)
4. Earliest Entry

Additional Clarification:
- Takebacks are not permitted

Closing Date: Monday 20th July 1200 UTC+0

Your entry is good, but we are counting pieces from both colours, so you have:
1. 10 pieces (5+5)
2. 8 pieces (6+2)
3. 22 moves / 44 ply

I still don't understand... ENDING means in the end position or what

@XBLAAAAA yes ending = end position. Your first entry is good, you have
1. 11 pieces
2. 13 pieces
3. 31 ply
Your second entry is not competitive, as you only have 3 pieces on the opponent's side of the river.
