What to do with them Queens of ours?
Sort:
I generally try to keep my queen to create threats. The queen is especially effective at creating double attacks because she can attack in multiple directions.

I usually lose my queen after the third time I move her. If I paid more attention to what I was doing, I'd be a much better player.
In reality, I try to use her after I've cleaned off some other major pieces. When I bring her out, I'm pretty confident that I'm winning the game.
I like using the queen to put pressure and mess my opponent pawn structure. It's also great to break thru enemy defence.
It depends. If I'm playing a positional game (yes, I have started doing it
) I keep her in reserve, affecting the game through her proxies (defending other pieces while they move about). When the board opens and/or the game becomes tactical, I activate her and move agressively against opponents weaknesses. ŽThis is usually late in the gaem, unless my opponent has blundered the opening.

Well, when, where and why do you use your Queen?
