What I used to do was to count all of the legal moves when generating moves and add its total to the eval function. As you switch sides, you also count the enemys moves also and add its total to the eval. As there are only about 40 or so legal moves per side it does not offset the score very much, except when you severely limit your opponents ability to move. It also can help keep you from getting into a position where you have very little moves on you next turn. My suggestion is to play with it. Bill
