Hiarcs 10
We have the new Hiarcs 10 in stock
at the BCM Chess Shop!
The HIARCS program, written by Mark Uniacke of England, has been one of
the worlds top programs ever since it won the microcomputer world
chess championship in 1993. HIARCS stands for "Higher Intelligence Auto
Response Chess System". And indeed the distinguishing feature is that
the author, like no other, uses a maximum of chess knowledge to increase
the playing strength of his program.
Hiarcs has long been renowned for its human-like playing style. Now Hiarcs
10 goes much further with improved chess knowledge, a more aggressive
style and an ability to search deeply for the truth of a position. New
chess knowledge enables Hiarcs 10 to identify deep attacking motifs long
before they become apparent, especially concerning king attacks, and unbalanced
positions and material. Hiarcs 10 often prefers initiative and attacking
options over more materialistic concerns associated with traditional chess
programs. Matched to this new chess knowledge, Hiarcs 10 searches much
more deeply than its predecessor often enabling it to find new unexpected
moves and ideas much faster. New enhancements mean that, while playing
or analysing games, Hiarcs 10 is able to learn more about the positions
and moves it sees and improve its chess strength in future games.This
feature is essential for all chess players who analyse chess games, studies,
positions and openings as it enables Hiarcs 10 to understand deep strategic
or tactical ideas while analysing with you. With Hiarcs 10 you get an
intelligent chess partner which actually learns and improves with you!
