Hi,
I have just uploaded a new version of "Surprise". These are the main changes:
- Better opening book, created by Arturo Ochoa (book creator of "Diep"
running at WCCC 2004) - many thanks to Arturo for your help!
Note: the name of the book file did _not_ change.
- Improved evaluation (added things like rook/queen on 7th/8th rank)
- Improved move ordering
Still Surprise will not be able to defeat the World Champion
But at least I hope that Surprise will establish in the upper region of
Leo's division 6 (group E starting about 20-Aug I suspect).
Hope you enjoy it.
For playing at AEGT it might be too early, although I would not disagree ...
Sven
