I got my friend to play a little game with my chess pieces... It was a little bit of a massacre. After the match she told me that she looked up the rules of chess because she had no idea know how to play.
Chess is kind of board game with its chess pieces set stand on the squares. Chess is a game of war between two armies, one of sixteen white pieces and one of sixteen black pieces, at the start arranged in two rows at opposite ends of the chessboard standing face to face. One chess piece can occupy only one space. In the front row of each side are the eight Pawns, followed in the back row by two Rooks at the ends; next to them the two Knights; then come the Bishops; and at the center the King and Queen, with the Queen on her own color.
The Chessboard consists of 64 squares, alternating in black and white, with a white square, by international standard, on the far right of the first row for both sides. The player who controls the white pieces moves first.

The most powerful chess piece in a chess game is the Queen. This is because the Queen can move an unlimited number of squares in any direction. It means that she can move to threaten or capture from any position, moving straight or diagonally. The only thing she cannot do is jump over pieces, as can the knight. Losing this piece is the most devastating blow in chess a player can face.
