MARKsman7328 asked:


I am the board 1 player for my school’s chess team and am looking for some chess software which will help me learn some more complicated openings. I would like a program which allows me to play against a computer, and also walks me through a large variety of different openings for both white and black. I would prefer free software, but if it is really good I would pay for it too.

Additionally, if anybody has additional suggestions on how to improve my game (besides reading opening books, they just don’t seem to help me much) please let me know in your answer.

Thanks.

 

What is the best (and least expensive) computer program I can use to make a game board?

My family and I made a board game quite a while ago by hand and I would love to surprise them and make a more professional-looking copy of the game board on the computer. I can make the cards and the money that we use in the game on my own, but I haven’t found a good program for making the board that isn’t too expensive. I can’t afford to buy auto-CAD or anything that pricey.

This is for our own fun, only, and not to try to sell or anything.

Thanks!
