Hi Graham,

Have you ever run any tournaments which have included Clueless 1.4, Monarch 1.7 and Roce 0.039 together ? These are 3 of my favourite engines and I find them close in strength in small tournaments I've run, but would be interested in your results if any.

Many thanks.

Many thanks.

I started testing Roce at 40/40, but it was well less than the 2000 ELO cutoff I use, so I stopped. Perhaps when a stronger version is released.
