In example C4 (A1200) won six in a row against Shredder5 (AMD450) The playing style is close to the new "paradigm programs", Junior7 , Gambit and Gandalf. The favourite attack begins with moves like Re1 to e3 followed by Rg3 or h3 and heavy pressure on the enemy king. The castle-bug is fixed and the play with fianchetto-bishops seems to be much better then all earlier "Rebels". The endgame is clearly improved, probably most because of the improved tactical ability. I believe Century4 can compete with every top-program in the middle-game but it is still slightly weaker in the endgame. Bertil
