Post by fern »

Weird that so few or perhaps nothing has been talked here about these very interesting engines which I know AND PLAY since lot of time. I wonder ewhat is doing now the author, Mr Annus....

I'm still reading here. And Arminius is still under devepopment. But I don't have much high quality programming time. I often test some little changes and sometimes keep them, but the time for big progress seems to be over.

It is a real pity because Hermann -Arminius I cannot get working in Shredder Gui neither in Arena- is a very interesting program, astute and sharp. I have not an account of the so many times it has defeated me, no matter what. I am playing Hermann since several years and I cannot remember one ocasión when I has been the victor. I am a 2100 Elo or so player in my good moments, but Hermann seems to be at least 300 points stronger than me.
Keep the good work, pal...
