CHESS

 by Sanjay Ram


Chess is a game of strategy and tactics, it was created in India, it's a miniature of war. It is played on a square chessboard with 64 squares arranged in an eight-by-eight grid. The object of the game is to checkmate the opponent's king, whereby the king is under a check and there is no way for it to escape. 

Chess pieces are divided into two different coloured sets which are 'white' and 'black'. Each player has 16 pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two bishops, two knights, and eight pawns.

The game is played on a square board of eight rows (called ranks) and eight columns (called files). 

CHESSPIECES :

Pawn :



A Pawn moves forward exactly one square but in the beginning, it can move two, toward the opponent's side of the board. The pawn captures pieces diagonally. If the pawn reaches a square on the last rank of the opponent, it is promoted to a queen, rook, bishop, or knight. 

KNIGHT:



A Knight moves two squares forward and one in left or right or in simple words in L shape. Knight is the only piece that can jump over other pieces.

BISHOP :



A Bishop moves any number of squares diagonally in a straight line. A bishop stays on squares of the same colour throughout the game, which means that the two opposite squared bishops never intersect.

ROOK



A Rook moves any number of squares forwards, backwards, left, or right in a straight line. It can interchange its position with the king if no pieces are between them it's called castling.

QUEEN:


The Queen is the strongest piece, it's a combination of a bishop and rook which makes it so powerful, it can move anywhere if it's in the centre except a knight it can't jump.

KING :



The game of chess revolves around the King. It might not be as powerful as a queen since it moves only one square in any direction, but the protection of the king is the most important job.

A-CHESS Game can be categorised into 3 parts, which are :

 OPENING: There are many opening's in a chess game, so every player moves according to his suitability. The opening should be done in the centre, to capture the centre, all pieces should be developed and the King has to be protected.

MIDDLE GAME: The middlegame is the part of the game which starts after the opening. There is no clear line between the opening and the middlegame, but typically the middlegame will start when most pieces have been developed. The middle game can be the trickiest as the right moves have to be played, tactics and understanding of the game become the factor which decides the fate of the game.

ENDGAME: The endgame is the stage of the game when there are few pieces left on the board. Here the King plays a major role as most of the pieces are either exchanged or lost, The main objective becomes to promote the pawn and checkmate the opponent's King.
