Double Wing Attack, Floating Rook
text:
In shogi, Floating Rook is a variation of the Double Wing Attack opening in which Black's rook falls back to rank 6 (R-26) aiming to protect this rank and prevent White from exchanging pawns on the eighth file to get a pawn in hand. The translated term floating is synonymous with the term hanging as in hanging piece used in western chess where floating means a piece that is not defended by another piece. From this position, there are numerous subvariants.
