It's the ease of adding new evaluation knowledge cleanly, quickly, and efficiently that makes bitboards a win. In my old mailbox days, I thought my evaluation function with its grotesque rules-of-thumbs that tried to check for things was ugly. My bitboard evaluation seems much more acceptable. But can't you use rotated bitboards win for move generation too? That would seem to make bitboards a better solution across-the-board... not just for evaluation. A SAN-like package for doing rotated bitboard move generation would be rather nice. --Stuart
