Avatar of malachi76

Hello Team 54,

  Sorry it took so long to put these puzzles up but again after a hour of work putting them together last week they didnt post. It is truly frustrating having to put them all up again after I did it the first time.

   Anyway, this is the last set of puzzles dealing with diagonals and bishops. I hope you and enjoy and develop more of an appreciation for your bishops after completing all of these exercises.  Again if they seem to hard then open up the move list and hopefully I would have answered all of your questions. Thanks and Good Luck!

Teja,

 Being good is relative. When I play some people I am great. When I play others I am just a mere beginner

I solved all the puzzles in spite of my low rating, but only because I knew that the bishops were the mating pieces..Just need to know how to get into these type of positions...They were great

My experience was the same as, (walkerruns),what i need to know is are these problems set up every day?

Eagleswings,

 I do different themes about every ten days or so. The next ones will be up in a few days or so.
