No, GNU Go will try to attack/defend strings (not dragons) tactically. In other words, it will try to capture/prevent capturing only and not care about eyes and such. Also, in tactical reading, strings with 5 liberties are counted alive automatically. Life-and-death reading can be invoked using owl_attack/owl_defend commands. `Owl' is the name of GNU Go life-and-death module.
