I am preparing some analysis for you. You have hit upon the portion of the game where (I feel) computers really are the weakest and humans are the best. Openings would be the same, but with opening database systems, computers are just as strong as people now. But at the phase of the game you are in, I find that if I can survive that long, I will often win. But computers only very, very rarely let me get that far because I will make some tactical mistake on the way. When the board is fairly clear, and yet the computer does not have the full power of the tablebase because there are too many pieces on the board, it is very easy to see ten full moves ahead for the person, but still hard for the computer to do this. I think if you can write a program that is equal in all other areas and can play in this portion of the game with strategic planning, it will beat all the others.
