Question

Can a pawn take another piece on it's first move?

Answer 2

yes/ GET R DONE!

Answer 3

Yes.  Download the official rules of chess for free from the world wide chess federation, FIDE.

Answer 4

Yes for sure.

Answer 5

Yes. If a piece is in a position to be taken.

Answer 6

Yes, If the enemy pawn is diagnol and once space in front of the pawn it can.

This would not be possible if it was the "players" first move, but if it is the first time to move the piece then yes.

There is also the move onpauscant (i think that is how it is spelled)

on the example below, if X moves down two spaces, so as to be directly beside 0, then 0 can capture x by moving one space up , and on space over(if is is X first time to move that piece). It has to be this scenerio and this placement on the board (it can be left or right of this position but not up or down)
