Also, can you determine what they score each move at the same ply depth? I don't have a really fast computer and ply 12 is about the deepest it goes execept for very basic positions. I became curious about the position when a couple of moves after Re6, the Star Ruby resigned (that took me by surprise as I hadn't picked out the line I was going to proceed with...but never look a gift horse in the mouth), and also in that Crafty and Yace did not even look at Re6. It was in the SCID environment that I had them analyze the position for that move and they immediately, well somewhere around 8 ply, came up with a higher score than Nh4. Maybe I'll leave them run for about 30 mins. and report the scores back here. Regards, Steve
