I'd obviously put the selectivity up to 12 and I'd change the material values slightly. Apart from these, I can't see too many weak areas of play - maybe pawn weaknesses might need altering upwards? I'm very interested in the results you've had with CM 10th Edition (default) if you'd like to share them. Graham.
