I don't know much about chess, other than who's who and who can move where.
I don't even know if this is the right place to ask this question...
but oh well...
How is the official way for a king to react:
- If my pawn moves kitty-corner to opponent's king, I declare check;
does the king have to move out of the way, or can it take the
pawn?
- What if it comes down to only 2 kings left, is it a tie, because
how can a king take another king?
I would appreciate it if anyone who knows the answer could email me
back with the answer. (The answer sure isn't on the back of my box!)
Thanks a lot!
Sincerely,
Stephanie Pastva (pastva@apollo.umenfa.maine.edu)
