Chushogi analysis

There's no analysis for Chushogi. Is it possible to get Fairy-SF to analyze it?

Fairy Stockfish does not support Chushogi, so that isn't possible. but as mentioned in the latest blog there seems to be a great ChuShogi engine called HaChu http://hgm.nubati.net/HaChu.html . So maybe that will be added soon.
Though 3 variants and 3 seperate engines sounds tedious...

We could use the Fairy-SF custom variant feature. github.com/ianfab/Fairy-Stockfish/blob/master/src/variants.ini
But Fairy-SF may not be as strong since it's a general game-playing engine (pun intended).

Usually Stockfish based variant engines are much stronger than most specialized independent variant engines (keep in mind that most top shogi engines are SF based as well), so playing strength wouldn't really be the main concern. However, implementing Chu Shogi based on (Fairy-)Stockfish is rather tricky, so it is unlikely to be supported there, at least any time soon.

I agree with what Wanderer wrote about analysis in lishogi.org/blog/Y6kTwxEAAKKgP_sV/chu-shogi-is-here
