Overview
You've learned the rules of chess and how the pieces move. Now what? You take your opponent's pieces, that's what! But as you may have experienced in your games, taking the wrong pieces - or taking with the wrong piece - can backfire horribly. That's where this course comes in. Can I take it? A Beginner's Guide to Capturing in Chess teaches you the most basic skills of chess tactics and strategy. You won't just learn if you can take an opponent's piece. You'll also learn how to take that piece - which can make the difference between winning and losing a game! In particular, you'll learn how to easily evaluate every piece trade you make. You'll also learn how to count attackers and defenders - and when it doesn't matter! This book will greatly improve your chances of winning - by starting to capture your opponent's pieces!
