For Slow Chess: Lot of Extensions is defnitely true. Pretty good kingsafety.. hopefully true, there are of course weaknesses and the total king safety values aren't large, it goes up to about 2 pawns at most. There is actually no direct spatial control. The quick and ugly estimates of piece mobility/positioning can make it look Slow look good when they're right, or bad when they're wrong. Once against a human in a standard game it got 3 Pieces completely trapped (and was of course crushed.) I do hope to add accurate spatial control if I work on it more. Of commercial programs ChessMaster's design is the one I most identify with, and if there are future versions they will be even more Chessmaster like. Uri: SlowChess in 32-bit. I'm also curious how fast it runs on the Athlon 64.
