Queen

The Queen is the most powerful piece in the game of chess. She has the ability to move any number of unoccupied squared in a straight line vertically, horizontally, or diagonally, just like a combination of Rook and Bishop. Each player starts the game with one queen, placed in the middle of the first rank next to the King.

Value

 * Her value is 9 points in chess, and a player should be really cautious of the Queen or else if a player mistakenly placed their Queen in the wrong spot, it would be captured by their opponent, giving the opponent a higher advantage to win the game.
 * Because Queen is the most valued piece in the game of Chess, a player is most likely promote their pawn to a Queen, giving them the best option in the midgame or endgame.
 * The Queen is worth the strongest when her path has many open spaces. The Queen can easily bypass restricted paths, because she has abilities to move both as a Rook and a Bishop.

Placement and movement

 * White Queen is placed in d1 while black Queen is placed in d8.
 * Queen has her ability to move both Bishop and Rook.
 * The maximum possible moves for a Queen is 27.

Position
White Queen is placed at d1 at the setup while the black Queen is placed at d8. Remember: the Queen always gets her own color, which means white Queen always start at white square while Black Queen starts at Black square. The King is totally the opposite...

Quantity
Though each player starts with one Queen, if a player has moved their pawn to the opposite side of the chessboard, it can be promoted to a Queen. In theory, the maximum amount of Queens possible is 9 (8 from all promotion of Pawn to a Queen, 1 initially). A player can use a rook (because it's already captured by their opponent) and turn it upside to resemble a Queen. A player can also use an object (e.g. marble, pebble, etc) to represent a queen if more pawns are promoted to a Queen. In a computer, there is no problem in adding Queens, so they will draw as many as needed.

Strength

 * Very powerful piece that can move both a Rook and a Bishop.
 * Many possible moves.

Weakness

 * Cannot jump over pieces.
 * Can easily be vulnerable or attacked by weaker pieces.
