Leonid,
I am wondering now if I am confusing BruteForce with Minmax. I always thought
BruteForce was generating ALL the moves (or another name for MinMax).
Anyway, I ran your position to 6 plys and here are the results...
TCBoard - RunMinMax()
Elapsed Time= 1125.38 seconds
Ply ---CAPTURES-- -----MOVES----- -----TOTAL----- ---Invalid---
1 5 30 35 2
2 130 1,065 1,195 93
3 6,613 35,468 42,081 2,107
4 199,119 1,282,187 1,481,306 107,805
5 8,725,158 43,530,271 52,255,429 2,555,427
6 281,688,872 1,585,505,759 1,867,194,631 132,999,965
_____________ _______________ _______________ _____________
290,619,897 1,630,354,780 1,920,974,677 135,665,399
Captures/Moves Per Second= 1,706,964
The branching factor looks like it is between 35 and 36 using MinMax.
This is what I have found to be documented for the average number of moves
for a side.
Larry.
