Giving sequence to the continuation of " Fritz 6 " article, we presented a
list of desirable improvements now for Millenium Chess System (Genius 6/32),
taking into account the philosophy of the program and the basic characteristics
of the same:
01 - Engine Genius 32 Bits;
02 - Versions for Winboard of Mr.Lang's old successes: "Psion", "Cyrus Chess";
(Perhaps he would have some problems with Copyright, but for the fans it
would be a good one). The same would be worth for versions previous of Zarkov
and of W-Chess;
03 - Besides the option " Anti-GM " (the engine chooses complicated lines of
play of to calculate and to value for a GM), Genius could have some option "
Anti-Engine ", especially for the products of Chessbase (Fritz, Júnior and
Nimzo), taking into account the weaknesses of the same ones;
04 - Besides the option of comments in the form of variants, Genius could have a
command of "Analysis Positional", giving more emphasis to the strategic aspects
of the departure (material advantage, positional, chain of pawns, structural
weaknesses, domain of lines and diagonals, etc.) that the tactical ones (as the
system of analysis verbal/gráfica of Fritz). If Genius could comment a departure
like Capablanca he/she did...
05 - Option for the engine to abandon the game in case of irreversible material
disadvantage (One of the little fail that exists in the current program);
06 - Some connection form to Internet Chess Servers and PGN Games, like
Chessvision and own Winboard;
07 - "Learning Option", the one where the program begins with an inferior
handicap to the of the player and it is going increasing of difficulty, shaping
your style to the forces and the opponent's weaknesses;
08 - "Analysis of Style": The program analyzes an or more the own player's games
(ex.: your ICC rated games) or of a grandmaster, saving in file, and it
summarizes in a .txt or .doc file the characteristics, the analyzed player's
strong and weak points, your valorizations of pieces, favorite openings, etc.
09 - Only really offering innovative and different options from the competitor,
Millenium Chess System has conditions of justifying your price, without giving
up the quality. Beating the Fritz's GUI features is reallity hard, but not
impossible...
