Ares 1.0 in honor of the NASA Ares I-X Space Rocket

[Graham Banks]

I've pitted Ares against Counter 1.1 first up. If it beats Counter, I'll try it against BugChess2 1.6.3.

From my limited tests, I believe it's about 2200-2300. Slightly below DayDreamer 1.5.

Then it will probably lose to Counter, in which case I'll probably match it against GreKo 6.5 next.

Cheers,
Graham.

Ares 1.0 lost narrowly to Counter 1.1 by 5.5-4.5 in a small match, so I'll try it against GreKo 6.5 next.

That's pretty close I'd say....

Yes - I'm picking that it will start in Division 4 of my Amateur Series.
