Taktix,
a Chess Engine Communication Protocol aka WinBoard and UCI compliant chess engine by Matthias Gemuh, written in C++ using Borland C++Builder 5.0, first released in March 2003. Taktix has the same Board Representation, and features almost the same search as BigLion, albeit a more speculative evaluation for a more entertaining playing style ^[1]. According to its author, Taktix likes to sacrifice material in exchange for weird positions ^[2]. Since 2.23w in fall 2005, Taktix is able to play Chess960 ^[3]
