New engine releases 2020

[Guenther]

Soon to come, if testing is ok

rust compilations (all new or never released/compiled at all):
Haddock# (Vice derivate with lots of changes) UCI
Chareth UCI (thanks to pi4chess for mentioning it)
Rasch XB
Chessier UCI

others:
Monochrome rev203
LittleWing 0.61

The Hunt for engines is open 😁
Isn't it better to announce them after testing ?
Some i managed to compile were buggy or really too slow or making random moves (not taking other pieces for free) so I discard.
I have not yet looked for Vice and clones, but looking for uci and xboard ones is a good start.
Thanks for these new engines. I will look into them ☺️

Haddock was already announced in 2019...
and was released several times already, but source only.
(just do a forum search, or look at my waiting list in the XB/UCI chronology for the links)

Ofc I have checked them before, but not fully tested yet (just from cmd).

Actually I am not hunting...no interest in clones/stupid derivates/unfinished or too buggy programs,
also I am looking at the commits for progress/bugfixing.

Wonderful site and a great source for finding engines.

Haddock# (Vice derivate with lots of changes) UCI
Chessier UCI

Haddock seems very weak, maybe around 1000 Elos.
Chessier is much stronger, I guess around 1700.

Chessier is much stronger, I guess around 1700.

That was very much overoptimistic. Closer to 1400.

Haddock is very slow. Slower and weaker than Vice 1.1. I discarded it since it's a derivative with far less value than the original.

Sorry, I mixed Haddock up with Chareth from memory. Haddock is no Vice derivate (just the piecesquare tables are inspired).
Chareth was the Vice derivate with lots of changes...had still not enough time for testing all of them yet.

My initial test results with Chareth show it is around 1750 Elos.
