New Fritz 9 Training Modes
The release of Fritz8 saw some interesting and useful training features added to
the program: opening and endgame training. In the first of these modes you
select an opening variation from a menu, load it, and then try to replay the
pre-programmed correct “book” moves from memory. With endgame training you load
a type of endgame from a menu and then play it out against your computer
opponent; your goal here is to achieve checkmate.
While Fritz9 still contains these training modes, they’ve been supplemented by
the addition of three new middlegame training modes: attack, check, and defense.
All three, while a bit different from each other, share a common purpose: they
constitute a means of pattern recognition training designed to help you develop
or increase your “chess vision” skills. They also differ slightly from the
previous opening and endgame training in an important regard: while the two
earlier training methods relied on the use of specialized (albeit
user-modifiable) pre-programmed databases, the three new training modes can be
used with any existing database.
