Hi Josh.
Effectively your asking how to play chess and that is a complex thing.
Short answr, should you examine the hole board and try to predict what your
opponent will do? yes, that is how to play chess.
This is why I personally cannot play chess examining the board square by
square on computer, I need the physcial board in front of me. I've tried
playing computer versions with the actual board, but because nobody is
checking the position I'll usually find something has gone wrong in me
moving peaces and there is a descrepency between me and the computer and the
game has to be abandoned.
This is another reason I'd love to see a full tactile display.
In fairness I'll admit I have trouble with spacial comprehention, and just
as I can't play chess on computer square by square I equally cannot play
sudocu or boggle type games well either, though obviously lots of people
can, though I suspect their spacial awareness is better than mine.
Beware the Grue!
DArk.
There is always more to know, more to see, more to learn. The world is vast
and wondrous strange and there are more things benieth the stars than even
the archmaesters of the citadel can dream.

Subject: [Audyssey] tips for playing bg chess
hey I would like some tips for playing bg chess. I am totally blind so
cannot see the screen. I start by moving my pawns out first d2-d4 c2-c4
and then I try to move out the nights g1-f3 and a bishop c1-e3 after first
moving a pawn c2-c4. But then it seems to get complicated. Do I have to
examine the board each move and look at all possible moves of all my white
pieces to see which can be captured? also how can I better predict the
computer's next move computer set to beginner so that I know if say the
white bishop can move forward or should move back and then which way
forward or back s-w to n-e or n-w to s-e? I feel like I'm missing obvious
things like I should have moved a rook two squares over to capture an
opponents piece but missed it because I thought I should have moved the
night up or back for some reason.
thanks for any help. or is chess just really difficult to play if you are
blind and should i stick to cards instead?
