Learning chess Rob Brunia, Cor van Wijgerden Workbook Step 2 Name: Date of birth: Street: Place: | School: | Club: Learned chess from: | 1* step completed: Activity of the pieces ‘A queen can do much more than other picees. The value of pieces is of course of great importance, but also the place of the pieces on the board play an important role. The pieces gain importance by putting them on the right squares. 2 2 et = ncecee an BB ‘The knight on gl can move to 3 squares. The bishop on cl can move to 7 squares. The squares g5 and h6 are on the opponent's half of the board. It is good to control squares ‘of the opponent. He cannot easily put his own pieces there. EE fl In the middle of the board most of the pieces control most of the squares. So you must try to play your pieces into this part of the board. The middle of the board is called the centre, the squares d4, d5, e4, and 5. The squares around the centre are also important, A piece in the centre can quickly support other pieces anywhere around the board. i. ane ae GB Bol w a The knight on ed can move to 8 squares. The knight has more possi- bilities than in the first dia- gram. The knight has more freedom to move, more mobility. The knight controls 4 squares on the opponent’s half of the board. On the left White can comer the black knight with 1. Be4-b5. On the right White plays 1, Re2-e6. After which the knight on g8 cannot be played any longer. A piece is active when: it is covering as many ‘squares as possible. it controls squares on the opponent's half of the board. it corners a piece of the ‘opponent. it attacks a piece of the ‘opponent. The bishop on d4 has 13 squares to which it can move. ‘This bishop has more possi- bilities than the one in the first diagram. The bishop has more freedom to move, more mobility. The bishop controls 4 squares on the opponent's half of the board. ah - x “a In your games you must take care that all the pieces are active. The white bishop and the black knight control few squares and are not attacking anything, White can solve this problem by playing the bishop via el to {4 or even better by advancing the c-pawn. Black has more problems getting the knight into play. Via aS there is no future. On- ly by playing Nd8 and Nf7 it can become active.
