Body: <p>This is a two part question.
  I have over 2000 tactics from books I would like to create in Arena chess (using Stock Fish), to practice.
  How do I load and save these tactics in the Arena Chess GUI/Engine?</p>
  <p>Is it possible to have these tactics randomly rotate as apposed to them cycling through in the order you entered them in?</p>

Comments.Text: I guess it really can be something other than Arena, but like I mentioned, I have over 2000 tactics from books that I would like to load into Arena or whatever may be better and play them out. I did load 500 tactics into Lichess, but the issue is that Lechess only presents the tactics in the order you loaded them .I'm also looking for a GUI or Engine that will randomly cycle through the tactics as apposed loading them in the order you entered them.
