Best Answer

A king can not come into contact with another king in Chess as one player would be moving into check but any other piece can come into contact with a king in chess, the king can never be taken. GENS UNA SUMUS In actuality, no piece ever comes in contact with a King. The King is never captured by another piece. The King is checkmated when it cannot be moved to a square where it would not be captured on the other player's next move. If White moves a piece to checkmate Black and Black cannot move out of check, the game is over before White moves.

Yes a king can attack in chess provided it does not attack in such a way that it puts itself in check. That is an illegal move. In the opening and middle games in chess the king is usually a liability and unless it hides, it could be checkmated. But in the endgame, especially if the queen and rooks are gone, it can become a dominating force.

No

The rules state that the game ends once the King is placed in CheckMate.

CheckMate occurs when the King is being checked and it has no way of getting out of check.

In essense, the game ends when the King is trapped.

But in fact, the game ends before the King is actually ever captured.

So a King will never be taken off the board.

Er...no. ;_;

Kings can occupy any square on the board that is not attacked by any enemy piece but can never occupy two next-door squares. This is because the two kings can place each other in check, and one king may take the other. It's also in the rulebook 'When the King is captured, the game is over.'.

No - If you moved close enough to do so you would be putting your king in check and you are not allowed to move your king into check.

Another Answer:

You may not make any move with the King (or any other piece for that matter) that will put it in jeopardy, there fore the answer is no.

No (Unless you are such a sore loser that you'd rather take your king off the board instead of being checkmated).

No. You never actually capture the King, the game is won when he has no way to escape from check.
