Answer 2

Answer 3

Yes of course. The rule is to simply move your king two spaces to either side and bring the castle around to the other.

A few restrictions of course:

- the King cannot be under check.

- the King cannot pass through a space that would place him under check during the castling motion.

- neither the King nor castle can have been moved the whole game, even if they have been moved back to their original spots.

Answer 4

You can castle either side....Kings side or Queens side..as long as no pieces are between king and castle,you've moved neither piece,and the king is neither in check,will pass through check or will be in check after you've castled..

Answer 8

yes

Answer 9

To Castle Queenside, move the King two spaces toward the Rook, to c1, and move the Rook to the other side of the King, on d1.

There are four important rules that govern Castling:

Rule #1: The King and Rook may not have moved from their starting squares.

Rule #2:

All of the spaces between the Rook and the King must be unoccupied

Rule #3: The King cannot be in Check

Rule #4:  The squares that the King passes over cannot be under attack, and since you can never move your King into Check, the square to which it's moving can't be under attack either

Answer 10

yes can castle either side

Answer 11

You can castle either side as long as:

1. Neither King nor Rook have moved

2. There are no pieces between the Rook and King

3. The King is neither in check, nor will move over or land on a square attacked by an opposing piece.
