Castling cannot occur if:
a) the King has already been moved.
b) the Rook has already been moved.
c) there is any piece between the King and the Rook.
d) the King’s original square, or the square which the King must cross, or the one
which it would occupy is attacked by an enemy piece.
2. A Pawn may make an en passant capture if it is a reply move to a double Pawn
move, and it is a Pawn which is side-by-side with the Pawn that made the double
Pawn move. The capture of a White Pawn is diagrammed below:
3. A Pawn can be promoted if it advances all the way to the far side of the board. It
is immediately promoted, as part of the same move, into a Queen, Rook, Bishop, or
Knight, whichever its owner chooses. Since a Queen is the most powerful piece, it
is nearly always chosen as the promotion piece. Through the promotion process,
there may be more than one Queen of the same color on the board at the same time.
