The king captures in the same way that it moves, one square horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
The king can capture any enemy piece or pawn except for the opposing king, but only if the piece is not defended by any other piece. In other words, the king can capture as long as it's not moving into check.
well, that is pretty easy..thank you very much.. u know, for a beginner like myself , this little question could have kept me eating myself up..lol...
I will keep it in mind. :D
p.s. : It is pretty classy that kings do not capture each other, do not u think?
lol
if the peice is looking for danger the king can never capture it
Bro sacrificed his queen for a check.
how come this website doesn't let me capture the king with a queen???
Seriously?
Insted of making fun of it. I think wud be cool if this thread morphed into looking at the real chess matter of the King being a strong offense piece itself. Like if its whole defense wasnt the point of the whole game. The king can be a bad a*s. Its power is the factor that wins many endgames. I know there is an estimate that gets argued about what its material count would be if it had one and that experts say it might be 4.3 or something. Any one know a link to where that stuffs posted pls post or send to my inbox.
