The Queen, Rook and Bishop
The Queen, Rook and Bishop all have intertwined movements.
Who is the Rook?
The third most valuable piece in the game. The rook (aka 'Elephant', 'Fort') mostly remains inactive for most of the early parts of the game, while the Queen, Rook, Knight and Pawns do most of the heavy-lifting. It is used to get the king to safety by castling.
It is usually recommended to not play too many moves with the rook early on.
The Rook can move straight or down the file, or sides ways both ways along the row it is currently on to a maximum of 7 squares in a direction, because it hits the end of the board after that
The rook has a piece value of 5 points.Who is the Bishop?
The Bishop, with its relatively lower piece value, and terrific agility and range throughout the game, is one of the most fun pieces to play with because it isn't too bad even if it gets exchanged .
The Queen combined with the Bishop can make for a very deadly combo when used properly.
The Bishop moves diagonally in all four directions in a straight line for a maximum of 7 squares in a direction, per move.
