Expert gives you pretty good hints, World Class gives better ones,
Supremo better still, Grandmaster even better. It is a tradeoff
because a more accurate answer requires both evaluating more possible plays
and also looking at possible following rolls after each possible
play. In general, I'd think that at most World Class would be
sufficient and Expert will actually give very good advice
