My first official post (Aside from My “About the Author”) Will be as stated in my About the Author, a chess post. This move is called an En passant (Pronounced “On pa sount”). I’m going to base this off of the knowledge that you know how to play chess. If so, then you should understand this move. If not, comment and I will add a post explaining the basics of how to play chess.

This move is fairly simple but the opportunity rarely comes up in game. The reason being is that it can only happen in one scenario. It does not matter which two pawns you move How it works is the person performing the move will have to have a pawn three spaces up from the original pawn line (Not including moving from the pawn line as a move). Then, It doesn’t matter how many moves later, the other person opposite to the attacker, must move their pawn up two spaces. only immediately after that move are you allowed to do En passant. The actual move is much easier then the setup required, simply move your three space pawn on the square directly behind the recently moved opponents pawn, and take the recently moved pawn. That is an En passant. Till Tomorrow!
