After many years of work, my book about Antichess finally saw the light of day. For details see the official website http://perpetualcheck.com/antichess/
Nice work @arimakat !
Congratulations on the publication of the book. I hope I can get to have a look at the book some day.
Awesome!
Nice work!
Hello everyone,
First of all congratulations to @arimakat for this book, I know how hard you have worked and for how long you have been working on it.
There is no understatement by calling this book the "ultimate guide to antichess"
Arimakat is one of the best player in antichess if not the best he has both deep understanding and knowledge of the variant. Moreover, he is one of the most experienced player of the variant (he has been playing since FICS first launched it)
Few years ago I have had the chance to have a look at some extraits of this book and it was absolutely fantastic. You can find so many deep analysis of so many positions.
To my eyes this book truly is refreshing to antichess. If players could rather understanding the concepts of the games, and use their own reasoning instead of learning engines positions by heart it would be so much interesting. This book is exactly about it, develop your understanding of the game, to be honest one would get smarter by learning thanks to this, especially in building a strategy and in choosing which tactics to opt for.
Thank you again for this book Vladica :)

Thank you for the kind words @TheBigNico I hope that antichess players will enjoy!
I too have ordered a copy of the book. Can't wait to add it to my library. Also, eventually have a section on anti on my own chess site.
I attach the initial chapter PDF on the website, so one can see what the book is about: http://perpetualcheck.com/antichess/ChapterI.pdf
well done Arimakat, congrats!
