Kings are
among the least powerful pieces,
but, at the same time most valuable.
If, you loose your most powerful piece your Queen,
you can still play on.
Loose your king and the game ends.
Rooks are next in value
to the Queen.
They are each worth five points.
Knights are equal with
Bishops - three point each. If, you take a bishop with knight
and loose him in the next move, it is afair exchange.
Bishops are worth less
thanQueens and Rooks but more than pawns - they are worth
three points. One Bishop isworth three pawns.
Queens are strongest pieces
on the board. They are worth nine points each. With every
move you make watch carefully to see that you do not leave
your Queen open to capture
Pawns are worth one point
each, but, should not be undervalued. Do not sacrifice them
without seeing some gain ahead.
