As far as i know Strategy was the planning of moves in chess and positoning was the placement of the pieces based on that plan.
if you know
Sort:
I must tell you that you are on a wild goose chase, there is no term like strategically position. there is the term positional play, positionaly play is about having the right color of bishops in the Endgame, making progress in a position, gaining space for an attack. having a healthy pawn structure etc.

kurogkug, is there any way to restate your question with different words? I don't think anyone fully understands the question.... perhaps including yourself?
Strategic positioning is about putting your peices on the best squares to keep them all as active as you can. The best strategic positioning doesn't win you games though. I've won many games without being even developed properly, let alone having a strong strategic position. I've also lost many games despite having a stronger [strategic] position.
Come to think of it, "strategic positioning" is a bit of a furfie... the whole game of chess is about strategy... right? Which means you can drop the term "strategic" and just call it positioning! Does that help at all?
If you try playing a game here on chess.com you might find that others might be able to advise you better?
HTH.
Uh, oh. I think I'm in trouble. I thought the whole game of chess was about tactics, but judging from the disparity in chess ability between me and BorgQueen, I'm going to have to rethink the whole damned thing.

Nah, there's definitely more to it than just tactics. But tactics is, I think, why we all play the game. There is nothing more enjoyable than getting a nice combination that wins something. IMO anyway :)
Speak for yourself..

Really?? That's insightful! Do you know what IMO means?? :rolleyes:
Yes, but whether you finished with "IMO" or not you're still wrong. If I said everyone likes chess IMO I'd still be wrong.

My point, was that when someone says IMO, they are speaking for themselves and admit it, so "speak for yourself" is a wasted post!
No offense intended
Gawd I wish smilies were automatic here! And I wish there were more of them!
Ok, you win. lol

Both. Depends upon context I think.
"a strategically imporant decision" - adverb.
"to position your pieces strategically" - adjective.
My post content disappeared...I'll have to trim it down.
Strategically = adverb.
