I allways start with getting my knights out but are there other good moves. I always think of changing that stradigy but I never get around to it
I think it is safe to say that no other good moves exist :P
But seriously there are definitely some better opening moves than simply always moving your knights out, I would suggest looking up an opening you think suits you (the ruy lopez is a popular one) and learn a few lines into it.
But really knowing the technical openings is of minor use to a beginner.
Try getting your king pawn out with those knights. Then get your bishops out to help control the centre of the board.
thanks guys
thanks again. I am trying thos out in a game right now
Tell us how it works for you :D
its working great. It worked just liked you said
I usually develop Bishops before Knights.
you know I have never tried that.
Try rooks first, bluffing your opponent into thinking you are a complete beginner.
Dont listen to em thetman. Bishops before knights is a bad idea. Moving your knights out first is not a bad idea, it is a move that many top players have made, although at your level it might help your chess to push one of your central pawns and then develop your knight and bishop instead. I hope I have helped you.
thanks
that sounds intereting. ill try that
Knights first is generally the right idea. The knights have natural squares on f3 and c3, but Bishops can go to a number of places, so you usually await developments before deciding where to put them.
Sometimes I do 1.e4 Bc4, or 1.d4 Bg5.
I am usualy not very content about getting my pawns out infront. I dont know why but this move II learned could be usefull
the Queen might do better on b3.
yea that would work two
