    WHAT DO YOU KNOW
    ABOUT CHESS?
    Introduction
    CHESS:
    to
    • Chess is one of the oldest board games
    ever, it is over 1300 years old and it has
    been played all over the world.

    • Each player sets up sixteen pieces on a


    board with 64-squares of alternating
    colours.
    OBJECT OF THE GAME:
    The game is won when one king is in check
    and cannot avoid capture on the next move;
    this is called checkmate. A game also can end
    when a player, believing the situation to be
    hopeless, acknowledges defeat by resigning.
    There are three possible results in chess: win,
    lose, or draw.
    >Each player has 16 pieces but, there are
    only 6 different pieces
    >There aren't "colors" in chess but shades

    The Basic Chess light and dark


    >European rules state that the light color
    Rules: always goes first
    >White is always in the lower right corner
    of the board
    >The Queen is always on her color
    >The King is always on his opposite color
    The Different Chess Pieces
    THE PAWN
    THE ROOK
    THE KNIGHT
    THE BISHOP
    THE QUEEN
    THE KING
    PAWN:
    The Pawn only moves forward and
    never backwards. On it's first move,
    it may move one or two squares.
    After that, it can only move one
    square at a time, only consuming
    pieces diagonally.
    ROOK:
    The rook moves horizontally or
    vertically, through any number of
    unoccupied squares. The rook cannot
    jump over pieces. The rook may capture
    an enemy piece by moving to the square
    on which the enemy piece stands,
    removing it from play.
    KNIGHT:
    Whereas other pieces move in straight
    lines, knights move in an “L-shape”—
    that is, they can move two squares in
    any direction vertically followed by one
    square horizontally, or two squares in
    any direction horizontally followed by
    one square vertically.
    BISHOP: The bishop chess piece moves in any
    direction diagonally. Chess rules state
    that there is no limit to the number of
    squares a bishop can travel on the
    chessboard, as long as there is not
    another piece obstructing its path.
    Bishops capture opposing pieces by
    landing on the square occupied by an
    enemy piece.
    QUEEN:
    The Queen is the most powerful piece.
    The Queen can move 1-7 squares in any
    direction, up, down, left, right, or
    diagonal, until the Queen reaches an
    obstruction or captures a piece;
    however, the Queen cannot jump over
    pieces and can only capture one piece
    per turn.
    KING:
    A king can move one square
    horizontally, vertically, or diagonally
    unless the square is already occupied by
    a friendly piece or the move would place
    the king in check. If the square is
    occupied by an undefended enemy
    piece, the king may capture it, removing
    it from play.
    EXAMPLES OF SPECIAL MOVES IN
    CHESS:

    • Castling
    • Pawn Promotion
    • En Passant
    CASTLING:
    It is a move that is normally
    used to improve the king's
    safety. Castling is the only
    move that allows two pieces,
    the king and a rook to move
    at the same time.
    PAWN PROMOTION:
    Pawns are the weakest pieces on the
    board, but they have the potential to
    become much stronger. Should a pawn
    manage to make it all the way to the
    other end of the board, that pawn must
    be promoted to any piece its player
    chooses, other than a king.
    EN PASSANT:

    It is a move that allows a


    pawn that has moved two
    squares to be captured as
    though it had only moved
    one.
