What is a Tablebase?

A tablebase pre-computes optimal moves for all possible game positions within a certain scope. For Beasty Bar, this covers all positions where each player has 4 or fewer cards remaining in hand.

When the neural network encounters these endgame positions, it can use the tablebase for perfect play rather than relying on learned approximations.

Usage

from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download

# Download tablebase
tablebase_path = hf_hub_download(
    repo_id="shiptoday101/beastybar-tablebase",
    filename="endgame_4card_final.tb",
    repo_type="dataset"
)

# Load with the game repo
from _02_agents.tablebase import Tablebase

tb = Tablebase.load(tablebase_path)
optimal_action = tb.lookup(game_state)

Coverage

• Positions covered: All 2-player positions with <= 4 cards per hand
