Good Afternoon Gerold, :-) Stalemate positions are very interesting and can be used as an "identikit" for engines. It never ceases to amaze me how engines just don't say "this is a draw". Here is a nice test position for you to try.......it is a dead draw. [D]R7/P6p/4k2p/7P/8/8/4K3/r7 b - - 0 1 But here is stalemate....... [D]8/8/3p3P/1p1Pp2p/1P1kP2P/3P4/3K4/8 b - - 0 1 InmiChess 3.05: 1 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 2 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 3 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 4 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 5 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 6 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 7 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 8 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 9 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 10 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 11 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 12 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 13 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 14 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 15 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 16 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 17 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 18 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 19 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 20 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 21 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 22 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 23 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 24 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ 25 00:00 0 0 +M1 Kxd3+ Skaki 1.22 J.A: 1 00:00 61 61 -0.43 e2e4 2 00:00 308 308 +1.49 e2e4 g8f6 3 00:00 1.094 1.094 -1.49 f2f3 e7e5 b1c3 4 00:00 7.609 190.225 -1.16 h2h4 e7e5 b1c3 d7d5 5 00:00 10.873 181.216 -0.60 h2h4 e7e5 e2e4 f8e7 b1c3 e7h4 6 00:00 26.059 186.135 +0.45 h2h4 e7e5 e2e4 f8e7 d1g4 d7d5 g4g7 7 00:00 74.685 196.539 -0.81 h2h4 e7e5 d2d3 f8e7 e2e4 e7h4 c1e3 8 00:01 262.144 183.317 -0.43 h2h4 e7e5 d2d3 f8e7 e2e4 d7d6 b1c3 e7h4 8 00:02 343.261 180.663 -0.43 h2h4 e7e5 d2d3 f8e7 e2e4 d7d6 b1c3 e7h4 9 00:05 917.504 174.762 -0.19 dxd4 d5 9 00:08 1.572.864 184.825 -0.22 d2d3 b8c6 c1f4 g7g5 f4g5 f7f6 e2e4 g8h6 g5f4 9 00:15 3.032.972 192.325 -0.22 d2d3 b8c6 c1f4 g7g5 f4g5 f7f6 e2e4 g8h6 g5f4 Let's try something new.....
