One shouldn't judge the game after the playing strength of the Java program. One should evaluate the chess variant. Angel Chess is a clever idea in that attacking play is promoted. The two bishops are placed on the same colour, and white's and black's bishops cannot meet. This means that the diagonals of the opposite colour are very weak, on which attacks can occur. As guarded Angels cannot be exchanged, play cannot easily be simplified. So it is a complicated attacking variant. I have implemented Angel Chess in Zillions:
