Just a wild guess as to why those particular >engines were chosen. No doubt, I am sure Chessbase only wants their own programs involved (guess Tiger is a step-child). I am curious about the HW and operators, HW and Operators can make a difference in the outcome (as well as engine settings and opening book). Maybe we will get more info. I still think Rebel and Chess Tiger should have been involved. Just my own wants.
