Go up one level in this thread


 Dick,
I have three of them, but didn't realize that there was a
>Steinitz module.  What is it's function?  The Gruenfeld, Morphy and Capablanca
>are designated for the openings, middle game and end game.  What is left for the
>Steinitz?


the Steinitz edition-4 module is an upgrade of the Morphy module.
 it was  about 20-25 points stronger and it  incorporated the Gruen opening book
and  Capa endgame  modules all into one module
it is the last Module Applied Concepts(Destiny) released before going out of
business

it has some more advanced features over the Morphy such  the ability to show a
position evaluation and if i recall correctly some more level choices

btw..it should be noted that the Gruen and Capa modules were released in two
versions
they are referred to a Capa "S" and Greun "S"


the Gruen "S"  had a more advanced book then the normal Gruen
a quick way to determine which one you have is to play   G2-G3 as an opening
move..the normal Gruen will have no reply for it and immediately call for you to
switch modules.. while the Gruen "S" will reply from its book

now that i think about it,i could be mistaken and it could be B2-B3  i dont
remember exactly as i havent played the computer for some time

if your Gruen has a reply to both of these moves..it is the enhanced or "S"
modules.
if it has a book reply to only one and not the other it is the normal Greun




the Capa "S" also had the ability to show a position evaluation and an
additional level

>I learn something new every time I look at your wonderful pictures.

thanks for the kind words

Best
Steve
