Calculating Ultima piece values[Subject Thread] [Add Response]

I understand what you mean now. I calculated the values of A, D and LL as
similar on a full, infinite, board, based on my method, but the D can
threaten on average twice as many pieces as the others, which is a clear
advantage.

In any event both methods have calculation of P as a starting point, which
will give a decent starting point for estimation of a pieces power, or at
least the hierarchy between pieces...
