Xiangqi Red Cannon 🩥
🩥 (U+1FA65) is a standard Unicode character that you can copy and paste anywhere text is accepted. This page provides a concise reference with safe tips, internal links, and practical guidance so you can use it reliably across apps and platforms.
What it is and where it’s used: Xiangqi Red Cannon is part of the Symbols family (block: Chess Symbols). If you need styled or decorative alternatives, try our Fancy Text tool to generate compatible text that works in most modern interfaces.
History & usage: XIANGQI RED CANNON depicts the red cannon piece from Xiangqi. Use it in messaging or interfaces to symbolize chess, strategy, or a specific board move. In educational content, it helps explain red cannon rules or tactics. In game UIs, it can mark a capture opportunity or denote a position on the board. If a platform lacks color emoji support, a monochrome or text‑style representation may appear, so keep the meaning clear with surrounding text. For accessibility, ensure the intended idea is conveyed by screen readers through nearby description or alt text. Across platforms and fonts, appearance may vary, so design for legibility and avoid relying on color alone to convey the concept. Use thoughtfully to reduce ambiguity in formal content.
Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+1FA65
in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.
Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
