UltraCorr2
http://www.chessmail.com Price €35,00 ChessBase has just released a corr.CD with around 670.000 correspondence chess games, but Tim Harding the man from the well known Ultra chess CD’s jumps over this ChessBase CD,
with closed eyes and offers you heavy loaded 900.000 correspondence chess game file, for a unbelievable price of €35.00.
For the good order the ChessBase one leaves the shop for nearly eighty euro!
Tim Harding does not offer you a eye-catching cover CD but a home made one,but with a lot of extra’s as two pdf files from his books, 64 Great Chess Games and Winning at Correspondence Chess.
The master file is good for around 39.563 annotated games and I only counted the VCS and RCS files and that are all one for one heavy annotated files!
Also every ICCF server game that was available to the end of June 2008 is included! Must say that it is quite complicated to download games from the ICCF webserver because it does not allow bulk downloading of games (they can only be got section by section or game by game), and the server will have to be reprogrammed before this is possible.
Harding’s CD does not only hold latest correspondence games but it also includes a lot of historical correspondence games,as for example I found 79 corr.games from Alekander Alekhine.
But also 10 games from the great Steinitz
