PIP’S FIELD GUIDE

One pawn across.

Pawn Race

Move straight. Capture diagonally. Reach the far edge first. No kings or checkmate.

En Passant

A two-square advance leaves a brief opening. Capture the passing pawn immediately, or the chance disappears.

A tip from Pip

A pawn can move forward into an empty square. Diagonal moves need a capture.
