Castling
A move in which the KI and a RO [RO1 or RO2] move simultaneously and the only move where the KI is allowed to move more
than one cell.
It may only be carried out if neither the KI nor the RO concerned have
not previously moved at any time in the game and provided the KI and none of the cells
involved are currently under direct attack by an opposing piece. However, when castling the RO
can immediately give check as a result of the move should the opposing
KI be on E01 or E08, as appropriate, and there are no other pieces on the E-file. Castling kingside with the white [:A] pieces takes the KI from E01 to G01 while
the RO from H01 moves to E01, replacing the KI. Castling queenside takes the KI from E01 to C01 while the RO
from A01 moves to E01. Castling with the
black [:B] pieces is self-evident from the foregoing
explanation. Once this move has been
employed in a game the pieces involved resume their normal moving powers
and castling cannot be repeated even if the pieces resume their original positions. A defensive move played by a cowardly opponent - a special move solely done for the KIs safety
only to be dismantled by your opponent later! A double move in which an unmoved KI moves two cells towards an unmoved
RO and the RO moves over the KI to the next cell. If white [:A] castles kingside the KI goes to
G01 and RO2 to F01. If black [:B] castles queenside the KI goes
to C08 and RO2 to D08. Castling is not
possible if…….
|
01 the KI is ‘in
check’, |
|
02 moves
‘through check’ or |
|
03 moves ‘into
check’ |
You castle by moving your KI
first or both pieces together. A player
who touches a RO first may not castle but instead has to play a RO move.
