Progressive Tactics

Lesson of the Week

Last week's progressive tactics featured checkmate in one move, then two and three move checkmates leading to the same positions and one checkmate in four. This week's series of problems concern the gain of material. At the minimum, the player to move will gain a minor piece for a pawn. As before, those requiring two and three moves lead to the sae positions as those requiring one move.

Building progressively from one move actions to those requiring several moves will develop the students chess vision and imagination.
