Just in case you don't have them, you should download and install all 3-4-5 men tables before even thinking of using 6-men tables. You can get them from Bob Hyatt, Chesslib Norm Pruitt (also FTP) or Joshua Shriver, but you might as well try using eMule and download them by these links:

Smileys show 'spread status' of each tablebase:
– Super-shared tablebase – All files have 10 full sources (peers with complete files).
– Well-shared tablebase – At least 3 full sources exist.
– At least one full source exist - a recently shared base, not spread yet.
– Tablebase disappeared from the network. It was available for some while,
but now the original releaser disconnected before anyone else could get the files.
If you have any sets marked with this smiley, please share them online!
– Tablebase was never released yet.
If you notice that some tablebase is spread more, or less, than stated here, please drop me email and I'll update this page.
The download order is completely up to you. A few things that you may consider:
1. It's good to get small bases before trying the big ones.
The best start would be KNNKNN and KBBKBB.
2. It's better to get pawnless bases before getting those with pawns,
to avoid the possible "incomplete tablebase problem".
3. You will have better experience if you start with bases which are already shared by many people
(
and
).
4. You may like to download tablebases by "importance" order,
which is based on statistics of occurrance of each ending in real games.
Several such lists exist: by Dieter Bürßner,
Nelson Hernandez,
and Peter Kasinski.
5. You may like to first download tablebases for endgames where longer checkmates are possible.
