it might be fun (even from a non-FPGA point of view) to try it just
to see where it lies versus a convential piece of code on equivalent
hardware.

the game length is roughly the same, or smaller, and the number
of move choices is quite a bit more limited than a 19x19 go board,
(although larger than a 9x9 board in the sense that in the endgame
the board is often fairly empty rather than full) so it might be surprisingly
successful.
