In this piece I'm planning on sharing with you some of the fundamentals of chess to help understand how the game is played and 1 or 2 basic set up rules.
One thing I need you to know is that chess is a game of ability and as any ability it can be learned. If you are really serious about learning the best way to play chess and getting better it'll take some discipline on your side to take time and look at the game, investigate your games and play A LOT of games to get better.
Nothing can replace the experience of just simply playing more games and different opponents. After you get the courage to play your first game, then your second, then your third you may start to find what playing style you are happy with and start dominating your opponents.
Now let's get into a few of the fundamentals.
The Basics Rules of Chess:
Chess is a 2 player board game, one player plays with white pieces and one player plays with dark pieces. Each player begins with 16 pieces and take turns moving one piece at a time everywhere.
The contestant with the light pieces moves first and you can think about your chess pieces as your military of infantrymen going to war. The main objective of the game is to attack your opponent, eat as many of their pieces as possible and finally trap their king which is named "checkmate".
Although your principal objective is to trap your opponents King this may not be the case every game. There are a pair other ways in which a game can end:
- One way is a stalemate where neither opponent can checkmate the other OR when one players king is Not in check but is encircled in such a fashion that irrespective of where he moves he would be putting himself in control which is not a legal move.
- Another form of stalemate is when both opponents have captured all of each others pieces Excepting their kings. This is a stalemate because you can't checkmate with only the kings on the board.
- The last and last way that a game can end is if one player throws in the towel and gives up. Though you shouldn't EVER quit a game you can do this by simply knocking over your king and let your contestant know you are giving up.
The reason why you should never give up a game is often because you never can tell what can occur and what it takes is ONE mistake from your contestant for you to fully take over the game.
One fast tip to recollect is whoever controls the center 4 squares controls the game and is in a stronger position to attack. So keep this under consideration when you play your first game.
One thing I learned very early in my chess career was to always be attacking and shielding. This suggests you always need to attack your contestant while still shielding your pieces. If you can keep your adversary retreating then you're in good shape.
Now I inspire you to go and play your first game. There are plenty of places where you can play against other newbies players. One of the more well-liked places to play is at chess.com.
If you continue to don't feel snug playing your first game and feel you want to learn a few more things I am going to follow up this article with with two more articles like how to set up the board properly and how each piece moves.
