Hi Stefan,

may be you have not yet noticed that there already exist four
(more or less) FRC aware engines playable under the Arena GUI,

see: [http://www.rescon.de/Compu/fullchess5.html] (at page bottom)
or: [http://www.playwitharena.com/directory/engines.htm] (marked light red)

This engines finally should be able to handle all 960 possible FRC
starting positions instead of only less then 2% (18 from 960), which
I regard to be a little more representative for the targeted FRC task.

Fans of real FRC challenges surely would prefer to read on those
engines instead of seeing non FRC aware engines in a 'FRC' hiscore list.

For those who are interested how the mentioned 960 FRC staring positions
could be generated and how they would look like there is a nice matching
FRC FullChess FEN-Editor and Position Generator (using extended FRC-FEN)

at: [http://www.rescon.de/Compu/fullchess7_e.html] (freeware).

Regards, Reinhard.
