Attachment: hexgolive.PNG [ 11.81 KiB | Viewed 8720 times ] so the idea is this, instead of taking an intersection, you take a line. this gives each individual line 4 liberties, though connecting lines only adds 2 liberties instead of 3. above i have shown some basic living shapes. good, bad? |

You living shapes on the edge are not alive

they aren't unconditionally alive, but it would be impossible to kill them; barring some weird ko threat battle. |

The one on the right is unconditionally alive. The one in the lower left would need the red player to tenuki four nakade moves. |

This is equivalent to playing on a trihexagonal tiling

If I understand how the topology of the variant board is supposed to work, Red has a five-point eye-space against the edge, which makes this shape equivalent to five on the second line on a normal board.
