I just started another 100 games Berserk vs Komodo Dragon, With Berserk contempt = 16 ( Not the default contempt =12 ).
I am using this Opening Book, which I do NOT know if it is the strongest Opening, but I purchased yesterday. So far the score is
5.5 to 4.5 in favor of Komodo Dragon-2.6.1

Rank Engine Score Dr Be S-B
1 Dragon-2.6.1-64bit-avx2 5.5/10 · ·· ·· ·· ·· ====1===== 24.75

I think yes if you mean of how many lines in the openings that is sharp and precise.

I am using this opening, https://fauziakram.gumroad.com/l/fzabk, but I limit it to only 8 moves, to let both engines play a little during the middlegame, because if I let this huge opening plus a 6 pieces EGTB, both engines will only make a few moves in the middlegame and in my opinion this is NOT really testing engines Chess Knowledge. I just started another 100 games Berserk vs Komodo Dragon, With Berserk contempt = 16 ( Not the default contempt =12 ).

1 Dragon-2.6.1-64bit-avx2 12.5/21 · ·· ·· ·· ·· ·· ·· ·· ·· ·· ====1========1=1===1=? 106.25

Well Arena books I found a bit tricky...One of the reasons I switched from Arena to Chessbase (Fritz) GUI was 1. The Problems running Swiss System Tourneys.. & 2. Opening book issues (In the Old days Arena Came with a Generic Opening Book...Arena abk?) 4-6 Months ago I used Arena for a short time (A few java engines work well in Arena...Fischerle & Cuckoo Chess etc) I myself never use just one opening book...In Fritz your can create various opening books for the type of chess you want to see in a tournament....You can make Tactical Books.......D-4 Books...KID books.....Classical opening books...Hypermodern books.....etc...Many of these chess engines have a abk book and some GUI's beside Arena have .abkk books...In arena you can attach various opening books (bin books) to the engine in the parameters.....I had about 7-8 different books I was using in arena....Arena.abk Rybka.abk Human.abk Alekhine.abk Kasparov.abk Perfect.abk Olympiad.abk Gambit.abk Titus24.abk I think you can make your own books in arena :) :wink:
