When you get a piece back where does it go in chess?

Answer 1

Chess pieces (King, Queen, Bishops, Knights, Rooks) can move forward, back, and from side to side, even to return to their starting position. Pawns can only more forward and can not move backwards. A pawn can only move diagonally one square to capture an opponent's chess piece. Bishops can only move diagonally along their starting square's colour. Knights can jump over pieces, but must move in an 'L' movement (two squares forward and one to either side, or one forward and two squares to either side.

Answer 2

If you get a piece back by moving a pawn to the enemy's side it would originally take the place of the pawn, yet some people play (with modified rules) that the piece is taken back to the person's own side (the person that got across the board with the pawn). In professional chess (such as tournaments) plays in the way that if a pawn is to cross to the enemy's side, that pawn becomes a queen.

Answer 3

Yes. this prevents the returned piece from being taken again on the same turn as it was returned to the board.
