The Chess piece that can only move diagonally is the bishop. Each player starts with two bishops, one on a light square and one on a dark square, and they remain on those colored squares for the entire game. Bishops can move any number of squares diagonally but cannot move vertically or horizontally.
No, pawns in chess can only move diagonally forward to capture an opponent's piece. They cannot move diagonally backwards.
The only piece in chess that is categorically not allowed to move backwards towards their own side is the pawn. Every other piece can move either away or towards their opponent in a number of idiosyncratic ways.
No, each chess piece can only take one in a single movement.
In chess, a pawn can move diagonally by capturing an opponent's piece that is one square diagonally in front of it. This is the only way a pawn can move diagonally.

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 .
No; in chess, once you have touched a piece, you must move it. The only exception to this rule is in the case of adjusting the piece within its square. Some people play by the "the move is complete when you let go of the piece" rule, but this isn't an official rule. Officially, you touch it, it must move. Once you've moved it, you can only move it back if doing so constitutes a legal move for that piece and the current position, and only as a separate turn. In short, there are no "take-backs".
In chess, the king can take any piece that is within its reach, but it can only move one square at a time in any direction.
Once! Every piece gets to move only once per turn, and only one piece can move every turn, except in castling where the king and the rook move.
Pawns cant move sideways just like that..... they can move only while attacking some other piece.........
In chess, the only piece that can jump is the knight. This peice can move to another piece 2, then 1 spaces away, regardless of what pieces are in the way, and in this way, the piece 'jumps'. You certainly don't 'have' to jump, but there's no reason not to.
In Mac Chess, to castle, move the king two squares towards the rook, then move the rook to the square next to the king. This move can only be done if neither piece has moved before and there are no pieces between them.
