There is no 'true' gambit setting for Shredder 8, its a mixture of parameters
modified,

it might be best to make your own gambit setting, so you can have it play
exactly how you want,
first thing to start with is lowering king safety, from 100 to perhaps 97 and
putting playing style from intelligent to aggressive,

those are the main ones,
Center control isn't as important, because if its using all its time taking over
the center its not really 'attacking' deep into the lines of the opponent

its a fine balance
