Hi, there are several pruning techniques for Q-Search. I do not think that simply limiting depth is a good pruning technique. It may be better than nothing if you have no one else. The best two pruning techniques for Q-Search I know of are: 1. SEE-Pruning 2. Kind of futility pruning, not capturing a piece if its material is not enough to get you back to the search window. For me a combination of both works, not capturing a piece if its SEE-Value is not enough to get you back to the search window. Greetings Volker
