Though the Queen is the most powerful of the pieces, the knight has the unparalleled ability to attack overother pieces. It can, even with its modest range, reach out and touch an oponent in ways that continue to delight players of every level. No friendly or opposing pieces can get in its way or block it once it rides into action.

∙ 12y agoChess pieces are often said to value a certain number of pawns.
Pawns are worth 1
Knights and bishops are worth 3
Rooks are worth 5
Queens are worth 8
Thus making queens the most valuable piece when it comes to exchanges. Of course, every position is different, and this is only a basic rule of thumb. Also, the most valuable piece is still not the queen, but the king. A good chess player would be willing to sacrifice every piece he has to save the king.

The skewer is a horrible move in chess: it is a great move to use in chess to get a great advantage. A skewer is when a piece attacks an opponent's piece, that is stronger than the piece attacking it. It moves the piece out of the way, to leave a less valuable piece vunerable. It doesn't sound bad; but it is!
Where is the density of a Chess piece
the one were he moves a piece in to a different square.
If a player moves a piece into a position that will allow it to remove the piece from a particular square in its next move, then that square is under attack.
