Opening system

This applies to every selected board. Opening settings are saved with each tournament.

Opponents
Boards

Length & resources One repeat plays every pairing on every selected board: 2 games with normal opening, 4 with offers. One round gives both armies a turn. 0 uses the board’s own limit; an earlier cutoff is a draw. The board’s normal Xenon timeout win still applies at its own limit.
Same seed and settings reproduce the same games. Each repeat uses fresh dice; mirrored games share a seed. Workers are simultaneous games in background CPU threads. More can finish sooner but make your computer busier. They do not change results. Search work controls move search and opening analysis. Deep takes longer. How quickly ratings move. At K=24, a win between equal ratings adds 12 to the winner and subtracts 12 from the loser. Higher K reacts faster.

No animation or artificial delays. Search opponents still need computation; Apex costs more than Classic. Games and ratings save on this browser. Keep this tab open while running.
