Big chess engine

I'm very curious to see if this idea to see a Big Chess engine will give something one day :)

It could be a new challenge for programmers...

The prevailing opinion in this forum has always been that the huge board would make an engine really hard or impossible. That doesn't seem to be the case at talkchess so far.

It wouldn't be so hard to make an engine, I'm just very curious on which level it can play... I hope there will be people to throw themselves into that challenge, that would be interesting! :) .. I replied at talkchess, let's see how this will evolve.

Does the world really need a Big Chess engine? I can live very well without it. If I absolutely like to play against machines, I can play normal chess.

Why not make a big chess engine? :P Or will it ruin the fun?? :)

I really want to make a big chess engine but the problem is that i don´t know how to programme yet. I will start learing it in school 2011, i really look forward to it.

Of course we do not need an engine, but it would be really interesting to see a program playing Big Chess IMO. It would reveal the real complexity of the game. I don't think it would ruin the fun as most Big Chess moves are equally playable in most cases....

True Thibault. But it would be good to have to avoid blunders.
