no you have to wait till you next turn to kill it
In chess, a king can capture any other piece except another king. Getting next to a the opposing king puts you in check because it allows your king to be taken first losing the game. Moving next to the opposing queen is the same situation unless the queen moves next to the king as some sort of sacrifice ploy.
Yes, if the king is in check, the next move must take the king out of check. You do not necessarily have to move the king, you could take the attacking piece, or block the check by moving a piece in the way.
It is queen.
The Queen of course!
A properly applied fork deals with using a knight to threaten two of the opponent's pieces at once. It means that the opponent has to make a decision as to which of the two pieces they will give up. If one of the pieces is the king, it is pretty much given that the other piece is gone. It is a very demoralizing move for your opponent!
think of the king as a person who cares for the people and gives them supplies and they are kinda like presidents. so they are for many things like without the king there would be no queen and even the pawns would run out of supplies The above is a cute answer and I hate to ruin it with the plain facts, but since you asked, the king serves as the target for each opponent to attack and trap and win the game. Each side of the board is an army and the king is the leader so, although he is pretty weak with all the other pieces on the board, when the king is cornered properly, the game is over.
Yes sir... It's on the manual... please read it. Yes, the entire object of the game is to see which side can defeat the other's king first. The king is usually the most difficult to kill, because players usually try to guard it closely and keep it from harm in order to win.
Checkmate them, Make them resign. those are the only ones. ============================================ The object of the game of chess is to checkmate your opponent's king. Placing your opponent's king in check means that his king is threatened with being captured by one or more of your pieces on your next move. A player whose king has been placed in check has three options: move his king out of check; block the opponent's piece giving the check with one of his own pieces (note: in the case of a knight giving the check, this option is not possible); or capture the opponent's piece that is giving the check. If a player is unable to overcome the check in one of those ways, that player's king has been checkmated and the game has been lost. Often, a player will realize that his position on the chessboard is hopeless and that having his king checkmated by his opponent is inevitable. In such circumstances, that player will usually resign the game. The symbolic gesture of resignation is to lay one's king on its side.
This is my strategy: First, take out the main capturing pieces (Knights, Rooks, Bishops) but be cautious of opposing pieces. Next, try and maneuver your main capturing pieces in a way that you can get your opponent's King into Check/Checkmate as soon as possible, but make sure you're able to adjust your Check/Checkmate pieces, in case your opponent figures out a way to stop your strategy.

The king can move one square in any direction. If it moves into a square that is occupied by another piece, it takes that piece only if the king is not endangered if it gets next to it in order to capture it.
