Even with a 361-bit board, bitboards might still work well. Go programs using current methods are obviously not that great. I think that if you could find some sort of pattern matching method to use with bitboards that worked better than an array based method, it might work equally as well (which isn't saying much for a go program) or better. You could use std::bitset<N> as your bitboard container.
