Rep Power:
10
Continue..
Queen:
can move any number of vacant squares diagonally, horizontally, or vertically; The most
powerfull
piece. Try not to use it at the beginning of the game in order not to be attacked.
Hrere's of how the queen moves:
Rook:
The rook is the second most powerful piece. It can move any number of spaces up, down, left, or right. It can move to any square along its file or row as long as its path is not blocked.
Bishop:
Moves in straight lines on diagonals. They can cross the board in one move as long as no piece is in its way. They can also stop anywhere along the way.
Knight:
Is the only piece that may jump over other pieces. It moves 5 spaces in an L shape. At the beginning of the game when many pieces are on the board, the knight's ability to jump over pieces makes it very valuable.
Pawn:
Is the least powerful piece. It may move only one space forward if its path is not blocked. On each pawn's first move, it may move one or two spaces forward. The pawn may not move backwards but my move one space diagonally to capture an opponents piece.
Thanks for your attention..
