Go up one level in this thread


I'm not specifically famialer with Claude Kaber's tactics file; is this one of
the tutorial CD's available from Chess Base, utilizing the Chess base training
feature, which is also enjoyable.

Anyway, in my view, CTART3 is a wonderful tactics training program (many of the
positions have solutions for both Black or White, depending on whose turn it
is). designed around the Chess Assistant style gui.  It has thousands of tactics
quizes and can be set for different user's working at different levels of chess
knowledge.  Its interface appears to work more smoothly than the simular,
Strategy, Encyclopedia Of Middlegames & Studies, which appear to have some bugs
when you try to set them for test positions.  Another thing that Chess Base
seems to be ahead on from its competer's,  is the freely available patches, even
if they don't always fix the problems, or introduce new ones:)
