Draw?

This could be my favorite position to ensure a safe draw! Nevertheless, do not mess with Cfish to analyze it for a win, it would possibly crash.

Android UCI engine update: Corchess 1.5U.20170629.ACH

Thanks to Alexei for porting a newer version of CorChess to Android:

GET Corchess 1.5U.20170629.ACH for arm7

Below description of the engine is taken from its homepage:

"Corchess is a clone of Stockfish source code maintained by Ivan Ivec for better performance on long time controls, trying at least partially to fill the gap between regular tests and demands of correspondence players.

The idea is to improve the following scalability of Stockfish 8.

Starting from version b3, all patches are first tested at 200+2 time control (1 thread, 64 MB hash, 1000-2000 games) and then tested with 10000 games at 40+0.4 time control (1 thread, 16 MB hash). To minimize statistical errors, all patches will be tested against Stockfish rather than against previous version."
