This version adds null move pruning and futility pruning. Quiet moves are now history sorted and late quiet moves are searched at reduced depth. These search improvements in combination with a significant increase of nodes searched per second allow Leorik to look twice as deep as version 1.0 and that makes it at least 400 Elo stronger. The evaluation is still minimal, using the same PSTs as version 1.0 and nothing else.
