Scatha. Simple open-source hexagonal chess playing engine.

Author: Tord Romstad.

Notes

<p>Glaurung and Scatha are two simple open-source chess playing engines. The two programs are almost identical, except for the fact that Glaurung plays normal chess, while Scatha plays Wladyslaw Glinski's hexagonal chess. <p>Scatha includes its own GUI for Mac OS X (click on the picture above for a full-size screenshot). At the moment, it will unfortunately only work in Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.3.9. The source code for the GUI is currently not public, but it probably will be some time in the future.
