A Chess board is a square figure; separated into 64 black and white squares, forming a checkered pattern. The dimensions are 8 by 8 tiles. Two of the four corners will be black, and two will be white. There will be two chess players; each on an opposite side of the board. The white corners should always be towards the right of the players.
Each player gets 16 pieces, so, there are a total of 32 pieces on a chess board. Each side gets 8 pawns, 2 rooks, 2 knights, 2 bishops a king and a queen. One player will have white pieces, and the other will have black pieces. The player that has the white pieces will move first in the game.
A good way to remember the position of the pieces is that the queen always goes on her color, in the center of the first rank on the board; with the king on the center square beside her. That is; the white queen goes on the white square, and the black queen on the black square.
There should be a bishop on either side of the king and queen, a knight on either side of the bishops and a rook on either side of the knights with a pawn one square in front of every piece.
Not in international chess, no!
Yes.
Absolutely. The King or any other piece for that matter may move regardless of the fact that the Queen has been captured as long as the move is a legal move. Although, if your Queen has been captured and you haven't taken the other Queen, your King may not be moving for much longer as it is probably destined for a checkmate.
Move your King 2 spaces first.
Because it's against the rules.
The Queen is second only to the King in strength and power for she , with the exception of the Knight , can move like every chess piece since she incorporates the power of every chess-men's move .
The objective of chess is to checkmate the king, where the king is in check by a piece and it cannot block the check, move to another square, or capture the piece checking the king.
In chess, a checkmate move is a move that one makes that puts the opponent in a position where the king piece has nowhere to move.
The King piece. However, there is a move called "Castling" which involves the Rook and the King moving together in one move behind the pawns for better protection. The King can 'castle' King side or Queen side.
No , if your king is in check you can not counter with placing your opponent's king in check - you must respond to the move on your next turn by dealing with your king in check by moving the king out of check , removing the attacking piece by capture or by blocking the checking piece or you will need to concede / resign from the game .
