Basic Chess Concepts

• Open with a Pawn. This clears a path for pieces that have greater mobility.
• Advance your Knights and Bishops. Try and control the center of the board quickly in order to mount an attack and pin down your opponent.
• Pay close attention to how your opponent responds to your moves. What is the logic behind their series of moves? What are they attempting to do? What would you do in their position? Before you move your piece, think about how they would respond to that move.
• Centralize your pieces. Knights can control a lot more of the board from the center than they can from the sides. Moving the Queen, Bishops and Knights to the center is a strong tactic if you can do so safely.
• Castle as early as you can. If your opponent doesn’t do likewise, you are more likely to have a stronger attack position.
• The central Pawns can hinder the Bishops from advancing. Move these Pawns early to free the Bishops and to gain more control of the center.
• Sometimes, you’ll have no choice but to sacrifice a piece. Which piece should you sacrifice? Typically, you should sacrifice pieces with the lowest value. The values are:
  • Queen: nine points
  • Rook: Five points
  • Bishop: Three points
  • Knight: Three Points
  • Pawn: One Point
• If you feel a game is hopeless, you may choose to play for a draw. Try to constantly check your opponents King so that your opponent must keep moving the King back and forth.
  • You win when you Checkmate your opponent.
  • You should also look for Stalemate. This happens when the King can’t move. Sometimes you can position your own pieces to where you can not move and play to a draw that way.

Chess Rules, Tips & Advice

This section highlights chess rules which are shown in the game help file screenshots near the bottom of the page.

Chess Rules

• Chess is one of the oldest games in the world. It was probably invented in India more than a thousand years ago.
• Each player controls an army of pieces which are set up at the start of the game as shown. The aim of the game is to use your army to capture the enemy king.
• This capture happens when the king is under attack and unable to avoid capture. In that case we have a checkmate and the game is over.

Pawn Movement

• Pawns only move forward.
• On the first move a pawn can move one or two spaces. On the next turns it can only move one space forward.
• Pawns move diagonally to take opponents.

Pawn Promotion

• If a pawn reaches the opposite side of the board, it is promoted to a higher piece (except king).
• There is no limit to how many pawns can be promoted.

Rook

Rooks are the second strongest pieces of our army and move in a continuous line forwards, backwards, and side-to-side.

Knight

• Knights are the only pieces that jump off the board. Unlike other pieces they are not blocked if there are pieces in between them and their destination square.
• To make it easier to remember how a knight moves think of an L. Two spaces in a direction forward, backward or side-to-side, and one space at a right turn.

Bishop

Bishops move in continuous diagonal lines in any direction.

Queen

• The queen is the strongest piece and moves in continuous diagonal or straight lines forward, backward, and side-to-side.
• Each player starts with one queen but it is possible to obtain more by promoting pawns.

King

• The king can move in any direction, one square at a time.
• A king can’t move to a square that is under attack by the opponent.

Castling

Castling is the only move that allows two pieces to move during the same turn. During castling a king moves two spaces towards the rook that it will castle with, and the rook jumps on the other side. The king can castle on either side so long as:

1. The king has not moved.
2. The king is not in check.
3. The king does not move through or into a check.
4. There are no pieces between the king and the castling-side rook.
5. The castling-side rook has not moved.

En Passant

• En passant is a special movement for pawns attacking pawns.
• It only applies if your opponent moves a pawn two spaces, and its destination space is next to your pawn. You can take the opposing piece by moving forward-diagonal to your pawn’s attacking square.

Check

• A king is in check when an opponent is in a position that can attack the king. A player must move their king out of check, or block the check immediately.
• A player cannot move their king into a check.

Checkmate

• Putting an opponent’s king in checkmate is the only way to win the game.
• A king is in checkmate if it is in check, cannot block the check, and cannot move to a square that is not under attack.
• In the checkmate image shown below the white queen has the black king in check, and all of the spaces the king can move can be attacked by the queen.
  • The king cannot take the queen because the knight is protecting the queen.
  • The black bishop cannot block the queen.
  • This is checkmate.

Stalemate

• Simply put, a stalemate is a tie. It is achieved if there are no legal moves for a player to make.
• In the below stalemate illustration it is white’s turn.
  • All spaces around the king are being attacked, but the king is not in check, therefore it cannot move.
  • The only other white piece, the pawn, is blocked by the king.
  • Because movement is impossible, the game is a stalemate.
• If white had another piece somewhere on the board that was not blocked, it would have to move. The game would continue.
