Abstract: An extension of the SARGE-algorithm of cite{HKD} is introduced, which includes the incoming momenta in the kinematical pole structure of the density with which the momenta are generated. The algorithm is compared with RAMBO in the integration of QCD-amplitudes in the SPHEL-approximation, and the computing times are extrapolated to those for the calculation with exact matrix elements.
