ChessV (short for Chess Variants) is a free computer program designed to play a large number of chess variants. ''ChessV'' is an open-source, universal chess variant program with a graphical user-interface, sophisticated AI, support for opening books and other features of traditional chess programs. The developer of this program, Gregory Strong, has been adding more variants with each release of ''ChessV''. Over 50 chess variants are supported. ''ChessV'' is designed to be able to play any game that is reasonably similar to Chess. ''ChessV'' is one of only a few such programs that exist. The source code of this program is freely available for download as well as the executable program. As of ChessV 0.93, it is possible to customize the variants it supports. Of all chess variants supported, two of the most-played variants are probably Fischer Random Chess and Grand Chess. ''ChessV'' is capable of playing: * 2 variants on 6×6 squares * 17 variants on 8×8 squares * 15 variants on 10×8 squares (including 10 Capablanca Chess variants) * 15 variants on 10×10 squares * 3 variants on 12×8 squares Some of the provided variants can be customized in their details. It is also possible to create custom variants with ChessV 0.93. While the board sizes have to be 6×6, 8×8, 10×8, 10×10 or 12×8 and the pieces in a custom variant have to be chosen from a limited list, this allows ''ChessV'' to play hundreds or thousands of variants of each game it directly supports. == Engine features == * Searching: Alpha-Beta Nega-Max Principal Variation search, Iterative Deepening, Null-move Forward Pruning, Static Exchange Evaluation (SEE). :: ''Search Extensions'': check extension, recapture extension, null-move threat extension, PV extension, Futility Pruning and Razoring, History Heuristic, Killer-move Heuristic. * Evaluation: Piece-square tables, Pawn structure evaluation, Mobility evaluation, King Safety, King Tropism, Lazy Evaluation. * Hash Tables: Transposition Table, Pawn Structure Table, Evaluation Cache, Repetition Detection. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「ChessV」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
