It's just that book takes the >moves as "book moves" and "Strong" relies more heavily on the EOC/CAT than >"Moderate". I have no idea how Ed draws the line between the two. >Jim Use EOC knowledge options: BOOK: use the EOC data as an opening book, moves are chosen via a formula using the percentage, elo and number of games; MODERATE: use the EOC data via the same formula to add a bonus to each available move. In this way Rebel will follow human opening theory as found in the EOC database. STRONG: same as MODERATE only that the bonus is double. Typical for STRONG are bonuses between -0.50 / +0.50 Example of STRONG: 1.d4 1.d5 and Rebel will play 2.c4 all by itself because of EOC. The information is shown in the INFO window.
