Subject: Shredder 9 CB-version first impressions.

Here goes:

I read in some posts (here, or the German one) that S9 lacks the tactical
abilities S8 has.
First test I did was a tactical suite; a selection of 30 positions. (not the
easiest ones)
The list was headed by Fritz c.s. with S8 missing_one_test.

The following:

[D] r1b4r/pp2ppk1/2np1np1/3N3p/2B1P3/q3BP2/P1PQ2PP/1R3RK1 w - - 0 1


S9 finds it (phew).
What's more, S9 now leads the list (30 out of 30, but (more significant) fastest
solving time)

Serious business next: GAUNTLET   :)
(Nunn2 positions)

Regards,
Rick
