In that special case, the castling rules in FRC are the same as they are in normal chess. That makes castling for all classical engines possible and they can play these 15 FRC positions as in real FRC Chess. 1st. Download the limited frc15.pgn positions from: http://www.beepworld.de/members53/frc-list/ into C:\Documents and Settings\default\My Documents\ChessBase\Books 2nd. set up an engine vs engine match and under Define option make sure that the book options under use book is NOT checked, for non of the two engines that you selected. 3rd. Click the Openings DB underneath the Define option and select frc15.pgn in the File Name block -> Click on Open. 4th. Finally select your Time Control and make sure that you don't use any of the X=Y option like 4min+2s if you are going to play with Chess Tiger 15 CB. http://chessprogramming.org/cccsearch/ccc.php?art_id=302389
