Just released is the free UCI engine Aristarch 4.4. It looks like the author, Stefan Zipproth from Germany, has managed a major breakthrough. All tests point to a huge improvement since version 3.968 - maybe even upto 200 ELO. Here are some results from tests in Germany: Aristarch 4.4 - Gandalf 5.1 11-9 Aristarch 4.4 - Crafty 18.15 10.5-9.5 Aristarch 4.4 - Little Goliath 12-8 The author verfies in his readme file that "the current version scores a bit better than Crafty 18.13." The playing style can be configured through 23 different UCI parameters. First thing I noted was that Aristarch likes to play King's Indian as black!
