Well, let me see ...

I use:

1. Null move pruning
2. Zobrist hashing
3. Static exchange evaluation
4. Pawn hash table
5. Futility pruning
6. Killer moves
7. History heuristic
8. PVS
9. Mailbox move generation
10. Check extensions
11. Single reply extensions
12. KPK bitbase
13. Piece square tables
14. Iterative deepening

I could easily make the list longer, but I have already reached the magic
number of 14.  I have a clone.
