Strategist, (Стратег)
a Soviet dedicated chess computer prototype with a program developed by E. Surmin and S. Korbatov, supported by A.S. Morozov from manufacturer NICEVENT, Moscow.
The program, written in Assembly, performed alpha-beta and searched about 40-200 positions per second.
In 1988, the computer was announced to become commercially available in the Soviet Union at a price of 380 Soviet ruble,
roughly 600$ at that time [2].
Tournament Play
Three Strategist variants played the First Soviet Computer-Chess Championship 1988 in Ulan-Ude, running on special hardware at 1.8 MHz, 20KiB of code and 1K opening book. Unbeaten Stragegist-1 became runner up with 3½/5 behind Centaur, while Strategist A and Strategist ended with 2 and 1½ respectively. At the First International Chess-Computer Tournament in the USSR 1989 in Moscow, Strategist and Strategist-Natasha finished at the bottom of the field [3].
