Coffret d'échecs magnétique en palissandre

Le premier jeu de dessin qui offre enfin une chance de victoire à votre petite sœur !

L'un des participants joue le rôle du maître d'œuvre. Sa mission : décrire une illustration rigolote en donnant aux autres joueurs autant de détails que possible.

Pendant ce temps, ses camarades dessinent la scène décrite. Une fois que le sablier s'est écoulé, les joueurs s'échangent leurs œuvres. Plus leurs croquis comportent de critères mentionnés sur la carte d'illustration, plus les participants remportent de points.

Nuls en dessin, Identik vous a compris ! Pour l'emporter, il n'est pas nécessaire de savoir dessiner : il suffit que votre œuvre réunisse plus de critères requis que celles de vos camarades, et à vous la victoire !

There are many secrets in chess, knowledge of which distinguishes a chess virtuoso from an amateur. One of these secrets is the ability to play positions with opposite-colored bishops.

Why is it so important? The point is that the presence of opposite-colored bishops is not always a sign of an impending draw. Due to a number of factors, one of the bishops may turn out to be stronger than its opposite number. This can lead to a successful attack, material gains or obtaining some other advantages that contribute to winning the game.

Grandmaster Alexey Bezgodov has written a book analyzing 174 endgame positions with opposite-colored bishops as training material for advanced players who wish to deepen their endgame skills. Endgame theory, tactics and strategy are all covered, and this will help strong improvers to grind out wins instead of draws, and to avoid losing in difficult positions. Most positions are taken from modern games, and they mostly feature world champions and top grandmasters, including Carlsen, Anand, Kramnik, Kasparov, Karpov, Fischer, Tal, Korchnoi, Andersson, Shirov, Gelfand, Caruana, Nepomniachtchi, and others.

Une version cartes pour deux joueurs du célèbre jeu de plateau. Les mécanismes de base du jeu sont respectés, mais l'interaction entre les joueurs diminue sensiblement au profit d'une planification plus poussée. Au total, un jeu plus cérébral et moins purement distrayant que la version classique.

Christof Sielecki is a popular author with club players, but this time he is offering a book dedicated to beginners who want to get to grips with the game with the essential theoretical foundations.
