Chess

No. Any chess piece can only take one of the opposing pieces at any one time.

That's not to say that you can't setup a fork, where your bishop attacks two pieces at the same time, or a pin, such as when the opponent can't move the attacked piece out of the way, but the end result is that you only take one piece at a time.

Yes, it's called a passed pawn when one player moves ahead instead of taking a pawn or a piece.

At the beginning of a chess game there will be two players playing with a total of sixteen chessmen each per opponent . There will be an overall total of thirty-two chess pieces . There will be two kings , two queens , four rooks , four bishops , four knights and sixteen pawns .

No, kings cannot come within one square range of each other. Think of it like a forcefield.

yes it can

A pawn by itself with no other pawn on its side to move up to protect it is called an isolated pawn.

They never played because they were not contemporaries.

Paul Morphy had a brilliant but short chess career. He played from 1857 to 1860, when he retired from active play against the top competition, unofficial second world chess champion after Anderssen Adolf. After that, he played casually and in demonstrations playing well blindfolded against many people at the same time.

Steinitz did not emerge as a chess power until 20 years later in the 1880s. He became the first official champion in 1886.

Steinitz actually met Morphy in New Orleans, but the conditions Morphy set for the meeting were that they could talk about anything except chess. When Maurian delivered Morphy's message to Steinitz, Morphy told him to tell Steinitz that "His gambit (the Steinitz gambit in King's Gambit) is entirely unsound." This shows that Morphy was familiar with Steinitz's games, but he had already given up playing chess with all but his life-long friend Maurian.

The most Morphy ever played blindfold at one time was ten, many times it was eight.

Nobody ever dared call himself World Chess Champion while Morphy lived. The title was created after Morphy died.

8!, which equals 8 * 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 40320

Yes, any piece can.

The first international chess tournament was played in 1851 and won by Adolph Anderssen. Prior to that there had been games between players from different countries, but that was the first tournament.

There are 4 rooks on the board at the start of a game of normal chess.

There are 4 rooks(original) or more in a set of chess.

This is because each player gets 2 rooks. Usually, it is 4 rooks, since there are 2 players, but there can be more if it is set to 1v1v1, 1v1v1v1, and so on.

Bishops look wierd and look alot like your mom combined with your grand father. They are also very religous and they were dresses every where they go.... even in bed.

the newly acquired piece is replaced by the pawn

32 - each side fields 16 chessmen .

Before I tell you the answer, let me just say that there are laws prohibiting any disturbance of a migratory bird's nest and there are fines and penalties for doing so. That said, they should only be moved if absolutely necessary and only if the only other option is the destruction of the nest.

Yes, it is possible, but it has to be done very, very carefully or the bird may abandon the nest.

Outpost squares are those squares which are protected by a pawn where the Knight can be stationed and supported by the pawn but cannot , in turn , be attacked by a pawn .

Each player starts with 12 pieces - laid out in three rows of 4. So there are 24 pieces on the board at the start of play.

there are 64

The object of the game of chess is to capture your opponent's king. Being as his king resides on the opposite end of the board your must move forward toward that point in the effort.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

It is important to note that during the attempt to capture or checkmate your opponent's king you may move many pieces to many areas on the board forward or back toward your own side of the board.

The pawns move forward except when they capture another piece by moving one space diagonally.

Some pieces move only forward and backward on the board in a straight line.

Rooks move like this as many spaces as they are able in a straight line.

Some pieces move only diagonally across the board.

Bishops move only diagonally as many spaces as possible.

Queens and kings are capable of moving in any direction.

The queen moving as many spaces as she desires and the king limited to one space at a time.

Knights move all over the board but do it in an "L" shape.
