Lesson 4 of 13
The bishop
The bishop moves diagonally and stays on the same color of squares for the whole game.
Diagonal, as far as you like
The bishop moves diagonally in all four directions, as far as the way is clear.
Always the same color
A bishop that starts on a dark square never reaches a light square. That is why you have two bishops: one for each color.
