I wonder if it's stronger than the author's older engine SpiderChess?

Don't have a damn clue Graham,but I predict that it's a little bit weaker as I saw some test tournaments on Leo's site....

150- 300 elo weaker if Olivier's tournament is anything to go by. But still a great release! but my guess is that it is about 150 elo weaker than spider chess, Olivier has yet to update the rating in the next edition.
I just emailed the author yesterday, he said he would release it in near future

and now we get it today....

I don't know how strong Anatoli is now. It changes fast and the latest versions didn't play many games yet.
I think it's stronger at longer timecontrols than at blitz. And it needs a better book than the tiny one that I released, of course.
But anyway, it is still a young and rather primitive engine, so don't expect too much!
