 * Home * Engines * Darmenios**

a WinBoard compliant chess engine written by Dariusz Czechowski in C++, first released in January 2010. Darmenios performs bitboard-based legal move generation, alpha-beta search with null-move pruning, quiescence search, history based move ordering, and uses a transposition table with a special replacement algorithm. In 2010, the rudimentary evaluation considered mobility, piece-square tables and passed pawns, and apparently has improved since then.
