    Chess

    By: Irene Leya Manoj


    V-D
    Pieces
    • King: The King rules the land. When cornered,
    he will surrender quicker than a mouse in a
    cheese factory. At all costs, the beginner must
    protect the King.
    • Queen: The Queen has the real power, the
    King just thinks he does. Unfortunately, the
    Queen is often required to lay down her life.
    Beginners beware… you will end up loving your
    Queen, and despising her opposite.
    • Bishop: Initially, the Bishops flank the King and
    Queen. You never know when you many need
    religious guidance, especially in the heat of
    battle.
    • Knight: The Knight, often called the ‘Horsey’
    by the beginner, is the Kings cavalry. Being
    on horseback it is not always easy to move
    in a straight line, as a result the Knight
    moves like a possessed madman.
    • Rook: Rooks can be both a King’s best
    defense, or his greatest offense. These are
    often called ‘Castles’ by the beginner
    player.
    • Pawn: The lowly Pawns provide the King’s
    real power. What they lack in
    maneuverability, they gain in number. Given
    a chance, a Pawn is capable of taking on a
    Queen.
    Board Configuration
    Ensure that:
    • The Kings and Queens are both facing each
    other.
    • The Queens are both on their own color.
    • As you stand behind the line of pieces, the
    bottom hand corner is WHITE.
    Piece Moves
    • The King can move one square in
    any direction.
    • The Queen can move any number
    of squares horizontally, vertically,
    or diagonally.
    • The Bishop can move any number
    of squares diagonally in any
    direction.
    •The Knight is the only piece that can
    jump. A Knight must move in an L-
    pattern.
    • The Rook can move in any number of
    squares in the horizontal or vertical
    direction.
    •The Pawn can only move one square forward at a
    time. However, to speed up the opening game, pawns
    are allowed to move two forward squares on their very
    first move.
