* 13 Bishops at the 3rd and 4th rank + King at the 1st rank is very good. I'm getting probably a 75% winrate :) . Enough to be (slightly) angry when I lose or draw, instead of super mega happy when I ever win with the old strategy.

It depends on the current computer method that usually puts a Queen and a Rook on a vulnerable starting position, so I guess it can be counter.

Anyway, the bot plays badly when it is hopeless, like after loosing 2 Queens in exchange of 2 Bishops. At my level of play, the opponent can always make a mistake, so even in stupid bad situations a good idea is not to trade material when loosing. I'm not sure if it's possible to modify the bot to assume there is always a hope. (Anyway, the bot target my Bishops of the color with the smaller amount. If there are only one color of Bishops it's a draw.)
