The goal of each
player - to attack the king's partner so that the partner had no possible
moves, which avoid the "taking" of the king on the next move. About
a player who has achieved this goal, they say that he checkmate partner and won
the game. Partner,
whose king has been checkmated, loses the game.
At
the beginning of the game chess board should be placed so that each player had
a white cell (or light) color in the lower-right corner of the chess pieces are
arranged in the same way each party to the second and seventh lines are located
pawns. Rooks
are in the corners, the horses next to them, then elephants, and, finally, the
queen, who is always on the field with him one color (white queen on white,
black on black queen), and the king next to the queen.
The player
with the white pieces always goes first. Prior
to this, players usually decide who gets what shapes by drawing lots. First,
go white, then black, then white again, then black ... And so to the end of the
game.
All six figures go
differently. Figures,
except for the horse, can not "jump" over other pieces, and can not
walk on the field occupied by the figures of the same color. Figures
may occupy the field, on which the opponent's pieces, having carried out their
take. Figures
usually need to be positioned so that they threatened to take the opponent's
pieces, could protect their shape or control the important fields.
