I was referring to the "Triple engine" function available in older Chessbase GUI's like Hiarcs 7.32. If you believe that Fritz is the best at tactics you can install it to make the tactical moves and then maybe select Hiarcs as the "Positional" player and that engine will play the positional moves. And of course you also have a choice of selecting which engine you think will play the endgame best. In this instance only one engine is running at a time based on some unknown "reason" why it was picked in the current position. I still like that idea but have no clue how the different engines are picked. Jim
