OK, whatever we might say about Archimedes Chess, but this old Swashbuckler of a Scratch Chess Engine won against White Dove (P2) after having faced mate in 3, won against Shallow Blue (Depth 2) after having faced mate in 6, and drew against Scurious (Ply 4) after having faced mate in 2, in just three consecutive games. True survival skills!It seems Archimides is just Nr. 4 on Scratch I guess
Those are chapters 42 - 44 in our Scratch 3 Runtime study: https://lichess.org/study/v3EKTlR2
It will take quite some wins to replace it from place 4. I think I will give Frenchgamerlol the next run, but who knows how this might end…// snip
Haha, yes. And I am not saying anything any more, but here is Frenchgamerlol vs. Archimedes: https://lichess.org/study/v3EKTlR2/nEUUO34Y
