RHP vs Chessmaster 10th edition!

c4 is a good option. A sicilian is a good thing to play against the computer. And if we do, the move a3 will actually help us later on because a6 is often played in the sicilian.

e4 is not a good option as it leads to more tactics.

We could also try a closed opening like the french, or the pirc defence. However, I'm not very knowlegable in either of those. But I do have a database.

i vote E3

g3.

I vote for 2 c4, though isn't a reverse sicilian playing to the tactical strengths of the machine? Objectively sound, though. ... a6 has no place in the Alekhine, so I vote against 2 Nf3 (if I can do such a thing)

3 for c4
1 for e3
1 for g3

Someone who does not even know chess notation should not even write in the chess forums. Anyways horse to f3 is not a move, their in no horse in the game of chess, there is a [b]Knight however...

P.S. Coconut you still have your vote.
