One small point - while many search ideas are portable to games other than chess
there are some that don't work at all in other games.  For example Null move
will not work in Othello or Checkers where zugwag is a major component of the
game.  But I guess you'd just take that component out of such games,

Thanks for the ideas,

Regards,

Steve
