8/p1P1N3/4b3/p5K1/1k4p1/6P1/8/8 w - - id Pos   1 - NOTC8Q.EPD; bm g5f4;
8/4N3/8/p1k4K/6p1/6P1/8/8 w - - id Pos   1 - NOTC8Q.EPD; bm e7g6;
8/p1P1N3/p3b3/6K1/1k4p1/6P1/8/8 w - - id Pos   1 - NOTC8Q.EPD; bm a6a5;
8/p1PbN3/5K2/p7/1k4p1/6P1/8/8 w - - id Pos   1 - NOTC8Q.EPD; bm e7c6;
3K4/pbP5/2N5/8/p1k3p1/6P1/8/8 w - - id Pos   1 - NOTC8Q.EPD; bm c4c5;
2bK4/p1P5/8/p2N4/6p1/1k4P1/8/8 w - - id NOTC8Q.EPD - Pos   1; bm c8a6;
