Go up one level in this thread


You could let them play with no opening books at all if you want such kind of
fun it is honest for both sides and I though I am a Rebel friend and it is good
to have good books but for engine results you should have the same openingbooks
stange then is that all program will have difculties after d4,d5 c4 with black
but Rebel will play a better sicilian then Chessmaster but after e4 wil folow e5
most of the time the Rusian defence
