What effect does promoting a Pawn to a Knight have on the object of the game? There are two options:

  1. It mainly increases the vulnerability of the player who promotes a Pawn to a Knight, because it gives the opponent one more target.
  2. The opponent now has to capture one more Knight to win, which is an advantage for the player promoting a Pawn to a Knight.
