Hi Thorsten, please to see you here again: You worked with Chris implementing CSTAl so you should now better about the difference. I have the feeling, almots the certitude, tyhat the key of the difference is that CSTAL does not use the usual maxmin approach, that is to say, does not choose a move because even the best of the posible answers -for the oponents- has less score than the best of the answers of other moves. I believe that some kind of preference is given to moves where there are the maximal number of dangerous answers from the opponent FOR the opponent. In other words, CSTAL does not presumes the best possible answer from the opponents, BUT prefer to give the opponent the greatest number of wrong moves to choose from, even if there is a good move that is better than any other. Am i missed the point too far? Fernando
