alot of information on this page but the thing i was looking for was not on the page, if a player is in check is there a certain amount of moves before the game is over?
If a pawn is promoted to queen, what chess piece should be used to identify that piece as a queen if there are no other queens or rooks available to take the position of the promoted pawn?
If all you have is the one Chess set you are playing with, an upside-down Rook is usually best. If the Rooks haven't been captured, the next best thing is something all of which has been captured, so that it won't get confused with anything else. Barring that, use something to mark another piece as a Queen, such as a coin or a Checker. Or just use a coin, preferably one from a British Commonwealth nation such as Australia, Britain, or Canada, with the heads side up.
i lovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeeeed it but i got bored and then it was neardy
Really useful page. Greatly appreeciated for a quick and fast reminder of the rules. Many thanks
Maybe inclue a graphic of how casteling 'Queen side' works.
What is the rules regarding the max number of moves to get the king in check mate during the end game before it is concidered a stale mate? corect me if im wrong, but if both sides make identical moves 3x(back and forth) this is concidered a stale mate, corect? you can email me back at u2bid93@yahoo.com robert
all your questions can be answered on this page, under the headings 'Stalemate', 'Repetition of moves' and '50 moves rules' please read 'stalemate' carefully, you don't understand what it means judging by your questions. http://www.chessvariants.org/d.chess/chess.html
I'm confused. I'm teaching my 8 year old to play and I dont want to warp him. I thought attacking pawns could only capture an opponents piece if there were two pawns of the same colour side by side. I couldnt see this in the rules though ?
A great quick guide for rusty players like me!! Thanks soooo much!
Nicely done! Done very well, but I'd like more colour!
FANTASTIC!!!! Thankski youski veryski muchski
This was a GREAT HELP! I play friends at school, but now I have an advantage. I can't wait to try a couple of these new rules on my friends. For example, I had never heard of the en-passant, but now I do. Thanks!
This was a really great system, i'm obsessed with chess now, its helped a lot. Thanks guys!
P.S. (GO BOBBY FISCHER!)
As a 'returning to chess' player, I am slightly 'foggy' on some rules. Currently playing long-distance with my son in Chicago (I'm in N.Y.) I appreciated your site refreshing me on promotion of pawns. I was under the belief that you could only 'promote' to a previously 'lost' piece. Now that I believe I understand that promotion can be to any piece other than a pawn (not a piece) or a king, my question: How is the newly promoted piece identified on a board? (lacking a replacement from previously 'lost' pieces)
Thanks.
this sight help me on stuff but got s bit boring towards the end thnks for the help m8!!!
This really helped me
very good !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
B'coz there is everything which one is need to improve self
You have a terrific site here. I'm fairly new to the game and have been all over the Internet seeking info and help of all kinds. Your site ranks right at the top as far as the covered topic. Thanks! I know there are many who feel the same.
it really helped me for conducting a chess tournament.
The representation of rules is awesome. Still, Bullet # 4 and 5 under 'Castling' are not clear to understand. Please give illustration with pictures.
