Beginners often make mistakes when castling, especially when castling queenside. There's one simple idea to remember about castling -- the king always moves two squares. Then the rook moves onto the square the king crossed over, There are some special conditions that must be met before castling. It can only be done on the rooks first move. If the rook has moved at all in the game, even if it later moves back onto it's original square, castling is no longer allowed. Also, if has to be the first move for the rook as well. If the rook has moved at all, even if it's moved back to the square it came from, castling on that side of the board is no longer allowed. More to follow.Expand this section!?
