Simple colored GO stones

General discussions about gobans, etc., go here. If you're selling go equipment, it should go in the Trading Post.

Simple colored GO stones

Post by BoredGameGeek1982 »

Hello all, i am a complete newbie to real GO, but i have played Connect6, Gomoku, and Pente at itsyourturn off and on for a while.
I decided i would get a real set to play with friends and family.
I am aware of a three player version of gomoku played with black white and red stones, with turns alternating between black, then white, then red, then back to black etc.
I thought the three player game would be interesting to play with a real set, but i can not find a reasonably priced set of GO stones in anything but black and white.
The set in particular i have coming in the mail is here: (GO game set by The Game Keepers, 1998)

Does no one sell simple plastic GO pieces in a range of colors?

Non :black: :white: stones are rare.

Ideas: thick color paper cut-outs; 3D printing; M&M's; etc.

From my observation, most serious Go people aren't very interested in variants like 3-color Go.
