Chess

The King, The Queen, Bishop, Pawn, Knight, and Rooks. =)

To improve your chess game , read chess books on tactics and strategy , play better opponents whose skill level is higher than yours , compete against a chess computer and practice over and over again .

The king can move to 9 squares, the squars he is directly touching, but cannot capture unless the piece to capture is unprotected.

The White Queen is placed upon the D1 white square whereas the Black Queen is placed at the D8 black square . The correct orientation, as per the chess rules, is with a black square on your left side as facing the chess board. One of the more common mistakes in setting up the chess board is reversing the king and queen chess pieces. Remember, as per the chess rules, the queen is always on her own color while the king is always on the opposite color .

You can look to the link below for further information regarding the Queen in chess .

Una, ito ay kinakailangan upang ihanda ang board para sa chess, at sa doon sa pamamagitan ng 8 black and white ang pedestrians. Ayusin ang mga ito sa ikalawang at ikapitong linya ng talahanayan chess. Apat na baril, dalawang black and white, ayusin sa sulok plate. Apat na kabayo ilagay sa tabi ng baril at manlalaban jet sa kanila na rin apat. Pagkatapos ay dumating ang pulang reyna, hilingin sa kanila na ilagay ang itim na reyna sa isang itim na patlang, isang white sa white na patlang. Kings ilagay sa mga natitirang mga patlang. Pedestrians ay maaaring ilipat lamang ng isang parisukat na pasulong, sa unang pagkakataon maaari nilang ilipat ang dalawang parisukat forward. Ilipat nila ang isang paraan at ng karapatan, at kung dumating sa iyo sa ikalawang plato ng pagtatapos ay maaaring mabago para sa reyna. Ang hari ay maaari lamang ilipat ang isa sa espasyo, ngunit sa lahat ng direksyon. Reyna Maaari ring gumalaw sa lahat ng mga direksyon at ng maraming mga patlang bilang hindi skips ang ilan sa kanilang mga numero. Kabayo Maaari lundagan iba pang mga piraso, at paglipat dalawang parisukat forward sa isang direksyon at isang parisukat na pakaliwa o pakanan. Top paglipat ng pasulong at paatras at hindi maaaring lundagan iba pang mga piraso, hunter ay gumagalaw sa lahat ng direksyon at tanging sa dayagonal.

Pawns are usually sacrificed to open lines for attacks by bishops, rooks and the queen. One tactic is the Queen's gambit. White moves its d pawn 2 squares. Black counters moving its d pawn 2 squares. White then moves its c pawn 2 squares putting it in immediate danger of being taken by Black's d pawn. If Black does take White's d pawn, Black's center position is weakened because it no longer has a pawn in the d file. White can then move its e pawn 2 squares and control the center of the bord. There is a similar gambit on the King side. White moves its e pawn 2 squares and Black moves its e pawn 2 squares. White then moves its f pawn 2 squares, putting that pawn in immediate danger of being captured by Black's e pawn. The King pawn gambit is trickier to play because Black's Queen can come right out into the fray and cause some trouble. The idea is that White gives up a pawn in order to get a better central position or mobilize its pieces faster. Plus many times the pawn that took Wite's pawn can later be captured and even up the loss in material. There are many other reasons to sacrifice a pawn or other piece, even a Queen. Look up Legal's mate to see this. Study your tactics.

Why don't you research it instead of waiting a long time for someone to answer it.

not limited, there is not any boundation of alone king's move. now you cant win, draw or mate or settlemate are possible results

Well,it isn't impossible, but it would give white a huge advantage.

Chess is a strategy game.

Chess is probably one of the oldest and most famous games in the world. It is believed to have originated from India as early as the seventh century, although the exact origins of chess are unknown. Chess has appeared in many shapes and forms. Today most people play what is known as Europeans chess. Chess is a universal game - universal in the sense that it is accepted and played in every country and culture. There are many tournaments held worldwide and many more in each individual country.

A pawn can only capture by moving forward on the diagonal or through en passant; otherwise it must move directly forward. Both moves are of one space only, except for the "breakout move" which can be of either one or two spaces.

The only piece that can jump over other pieces is the knight (the horse). It might also be helpful to review the rules on castling as the king appears to jump its own rook (castle) in this move.

In chess a king can move one space in any direction (as long as the spaces are unimpeded and won't place the king in check or checkmate), so the king can potentially make 8 moves (once in any direction) during any turn.

A king can not come into contact with another king in chess as one player would be moving into check but any other piece can come into contact with a king in chess, the king can never be taken. GENS UNA SUMUS In actuality, no piece ever comes in contact with a King. The King is never captured by another piece. The King is checkmated when it cannot be moved to a square where it would not be captured on the other player's next move. If White moves a piece to checkmate Black and Black cannot move out of check, the game is over before White moves.

I don't clearly know what you mean by height, but I'll assume it means by power

The ranking will go like this

Queen, king, rooks, bishops knights, and pawns. That is in terms of power. In terms of importance, you will have to flip the king to the first spot

* Pawn first move = can move either one space or two spaces directly forwards. * Pawn subsequent move - one space directly forwards * Pawn capture - to the square up one and to either the left or right. * Pawn capture en passents - can be done only when a pawn in on the fifth row and an opposing pawn on his first move moves two spaces directly beside the advanced opponents pawn. In this case and only on the first opportunity the pawn captures as if the opponents pawn had moved only one space. * pawn promotion - on reaching the eighth row a pawn can be changed to any peice providing it is of the same colour and is not a pawn or a king. * -----------------All other pieces capture as they move.----------------------- * Kinght - two (up or back) and one over(right or left), or, two over(right or left) and one (up or back). The knight cannot be blocked by pieces in its way. * Castle - and number of spaces forwards backwards or sideways but only one direction at a time. * Bishop- Any number of spaces on the diagonals. A bishop cannot change the colour of the spaces it occupies. * Queen - either as a castle or as a bishop but only one kind at a time. * King - as a queen but only one space at a time. * King side castling - Neither the king or the king's side castle have move previously, All the spaces in between the king and castle must be vacent, no space between king and castle can be under the control of an enemy piece. The castle moves up beside the king and the king hops over it to the space immediately on the other side of the castle. * Queen side castling - exactly the same as for King side castling except that it is done with the queen's side castle. * Lying down the King - admitting defeat

The King has a Queen to one side and a Bishop to the other.

I wouldn't suggest it if it's made out of glass, metal, or anything that isn't edible.

Hsiang chi (chee). This is how to pronounce it, the pinyin xiangqi does not give any clue. See Wikipedia for expansion...

Yes. A pawn may checkmate a king in the right situation. Note, however, that technically speaking a king is never "killed" but is checkmated. The game is over before the pawn actually captures or "kills" the king.
