StarBook ECO A-E
StarBook 4.56 is a series of 5 CDs, each
devoted to one "code" or section of the Encyclopedia of Chess Openings, which go
from A to E. These are Tree databases (.ctg) to be used as openings books for
Fritz, or simply opened and explored with Chessbase 7.0 & higher.
StarBook 4.56 is an openings book and database that will run
with Fritz or any Fritz compatible engine (Shredder, Junior, Tiger, Nimzo,
etc.) as its openings "StarBook". You can also use it in ChessBase 7, 8 or 9 to conduct openings training
and hone your repertoire.
Each CD-Rom was compiled of games from that ECO code
found on StarBase 4.56. Here is a brief outline of the openings contained in
