In a recent game between two so-called derivatives, this position was reached.
[d]6k1/8/8/8/q5p1/3p2P1/3N1R2/6K1 b - - 1 45
The game ended in a draw. Stockfish 1.7.1 gives a big score for Black:
38 06:56 531.691.157 1.275.947 -5.05 Qa4a1+ Kg1g2 Qa1c1 Nd2f1 Kg8g7 Kg2g1 Kg7g6 Kg1g2 Qc1c2 Nf1d2 Qc2c3 Kg2h2 Qc3c6 Kh2g1 Kg6g5 Kg1h2 Qc6d5 Kh2g1 Qd5d4 Kg1g2 Kg5g6 Rf2f4 Qd4b2 Rf4f2 Qb2e5 Kg2h2 Qe5e1 Kh2g2 Kg6g5 Nd2f1 Qe1e4+ Kg2g1 Qe4e5 Rf2d2 Qe5d4+ Kg1g2 Qd4d5+ Kg2g1 Qd5c5+ Kg1h1 Qc5c6+ Kh1h2 Qc6f6 Kh2g2 Qf6f3+ Kg2g1
Is there any engine that will see that Black can't make progress?

Perhaps he can. The fact that derivative's game was a draw is irrelevant.David Dahlem wrote:In a recent game between two so-called derivatives, this position was reached.

Re: Any engine see a draw?
This is a dead draw position but with the black king on a8 white loses.
It would be nice to see an engine which would recognise a fortress or a blockade in the endgame. Is there any?
