I'm not aware that there's a KBNN-KR tablebase available, or in fact any 6 piece
tablebases for Kxxx-Kx. I would be more interested in KBNN-KQ, if anyone has a
computer powerful enough to generate it.

A general question is... are there any 6-piece tablebases available anywhere
apart from Bob Hyatt's server?
