Well, actually you probably mean "sans TB" rather than "non-TB", because I'm pretty sure that all of those four except Chessmaster can use endgame TBs. In other words, you are referring to the engine's ability to evaluate endgame positions without the use of TBs. If so, then I would agree with all of those four (but not necessarily limit my list to those four). jm
