Having looked at your site I would suggest that it would be tricky to 'modify'
an existing engine to play OmegaChess, since most, if not all, engines make
extensive use of the 8x8 board size of traditional chess.  I would suggest you
hire someone who has written a decent chess program and get them to write an
OmegaChess version from scratch.  I would imagine that this should take six to
twelve months to produce a competent version.
