Since it >appears that you plan to run this tournament in a Chessbase interface (is that >true?) then almost definitely Crafty, because a native engine will be stronger >than an engine run through a Winboard adopter, so my guess is that Crafty is >the strongest downloadable native engine for the Chessbase interfaces. No, I >have not tested that. >Pete I agree with you. I would sugguest SOS but that doesn't work in Fritz GUI. Yace is probably the best ,free non-native chess engine that works in CB gui.. But if we were just talking winboard versions.. Besides those mention ,Probably include Phalanx,SOS,TCB,Zchess, Francesa, Bringer, Gormit,Tao is also worth a try. These are all probably close enough to occasionally win , but like Pete, it's usually better to bet on Crafty,,
