Rooks |
| The bishop may move any number of squares in a diagonal direction until it is prevented from continuing by another piece.
Bishops are a powerful piece (though less so than the queen or rooks). It is roughly equal in power to a knight or three pawns. Nevertheless, the bishop is a great piece to have in open situations when it can range the board. The knight is better in cluttered situations where it can utilize its ability to jump over other pieces.
