The method he describes is faster for move generation than rotated bitboards for sure, but I don't think it's going to be faster than mailbox or 0x88 (just my opinion). I may be wrong but we won't see an Hyperbola engine going to 10 Mnps this year, he'll probably have to wait for a long time before release :-) Carlos > >If you rememeber that nodes is only legal move because he talked about legal >move generator then the result is more impressive. > >We need to wait and see if he is right. > >Uri
