Medieval Chess

Chess is similar to Medieval warfare because in chess the most important piece is the king and the most important thing in a Medieval battle is the general because if your general or king dies or is in checkmate you will most likely lose the war. The knights in chess are related to the cavalry unit because they both are used to run over enemies and a knight in chess is the only piece allowed to jump over other pieces. The Archers are like the rooks or bishops because they are both used for long distance fighting. The melee fighters are similar to the the pawns because they’re both used for short distance combat.
