Moving on from this thread:

I thought it would be good to have its own thread, a battle to discover king of the 8 Bit micros as far as Chess goes.
Previously, the VIC 20 beat a Saitek Mephisto electronic Chess Game. The VIC 20, with Sargon II Chess then played the Dragon 32 with Cyrus Chess.
The VIC 20 did very well, but ultimately, the Dragon 32 and Cyrus won.
This was all 5 years ago.
I have decided that I will now continue this with a re match between the Dragon 32 and the VIC 20, but this time the VIC will use BOSS Chess.
I will then play both machines against the ZX Spectrum, and the overall winner (I fancy the Dragon in this) will go on to play the BBC Micro and the Commodore 64. After that, we may get an Apple II involved.
I shall take notes and enter all moves into the updates for each game.
