Chess is a form of intellectual productiveness and therein lies its uncharacteristic charm. A Chess game pits two "forces", evenly matched, across a simple chess table. Only pure skill and acumen decide who is victorious and who gets defeated. The sole purpose of the game is simple – Capture or kill your opponent's king, while protecting your own from being captured. You achieve that goal only by using strategy and tactical foresight. The Chess Board spread across the chess table has sixty-four squares arranged in eight vertical rows and eight horizontal rows. The squares alternate between one color and another, typically white and black. The Chess Board is so placed that each opponent has a white square at his right-hand corner.

Ummmm, yep! Right on the money lol!

Thanks its just my take on it.
