"System Tiger" in Rebel is NOT the Tiger engine at all.

It's just a small change in the search that I have suggested to Ed. This makes
Rebel play differently, but we have not determined if it makes it stronger or
not.

If you really have it, you have an illegal copy.

Rebel-Tiger is EXACTLY the Chess Tiger 12.0 engine running in a nice Windows
GUI. It runs slightly faster than the DOS engine, but has exactly the same
knowledge and looks exactly at the same number of nodes per position than the
version that is currently number one on the SSDF list.

I expect it to get a higher rating (if it is tested) than Chess Tiger DOS.

This is Rebel-Tiger. Are you going to steal it, or are you going to purchase it
legally this time?
