Training by making moves

Post by koltanowski »

Is it possible in Chess Openings Wizard Express to train my repertoire this way: I make a move and the software tells me if if that move is in my repertoire or not. When I made a move that is in my repertoire I go to the next move, when I make a move that is not in my repertoire the software gives me a second chance or shows me the right move.

That is pretty much the way it works for me. I created a dedicated training COW ebook for Black. When I turn on training, I make the moves for Black. If I make a move in my repertoire, COW makes a move for White. And so on. If I make a move for Black that is not in my repertoire, I receive a notification that the move is not in the ebook. I get to try again. If I can't get it, I stop the training. At that point I see the move that I should have played. Then I "Train now" to continue.

It can be a little confusing. Sometimes I reset the training to start over. It works once one gets the hang of it.
