it might be fun (even from a non-FPGA point of view) to try it just to see where it lies versus a convential piece of code on equivalent hardware. the game length is roughly the same, or smaller, and the number of move choices is quite a bit more limited than a 19x19 go board, (although larger than a 9x9 board in the sense that in the endgame the board is often fairly empty rather than full) so it might be surprisingly successful. s. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Boardwalk for $500?
