I am a beginner, well I have actually played all my life, with decades of absences[sic]. My question is this:

Can a KING attack?

The king can never move into check, so it can't capture a piece if that would put the kign into check. If the king is next to an undefended piece, then the king can capture it, since it wouldn't be capturing into check.

Thank you very much. I have been playing under false pretenses.
