It is strange that there is only one program still wich can play the kingsindian well whitout to much of book knowledge wich is Nimzo98 Though I will not see that in other positions crafty and Fritz5 and Rebel and Genius are not good programs but seeing the right way how to play with counteratack Nimzo98 is the strongest program In the other hand it is strange course Nimzo is not a program wich wants to go in a kingside atack but only looks for Hi mobelety thats why it comes out more easely out of dificult positions Chessmaster doesnt know how to play the kings indian cause if he plays Gligoric and you play Knight g4 Chessmaster is already out of book and never plays the ateniont move b4 also in the sicilan he never will play f4 other programs mostely have troubles then or wins material anyway but by leaving normal lines so the get an atack back again so I already said that giving a program more points for mobelety and passed pawns the program will go play stronger to get a stronger position after winning material the games From Anand against Fritz5 where realy easely won games by anand cause Fritz5 has a kind of buck mostely playing his pawns to the wrong squares when he has the bischop or knight the same point aquared against Rebel 10 An other point is giving the material the right valeu wich is dificult cause Capablanca al ready did give the knight the valeu of 3.12 and the bischop of 3.21 and you normaly can change it in 3.2 or 3.1 wich is diferent already so chessprograms are still far away from being perfect I just bought Rebel 10 and want to give a revieuw of what should be diferent in the style of his play Nimzo98 should have just as Rebel 10 the abelety though look far ahead in Tactical positions but it is to my opion the program wich is the nearest of how it should be And I agree Crafty is also good to my opion beter as Fritz5 but it could be changed a litle to look more for counterplay or mobilety
