About the application:

A strategy is a sequence of moves that limits the opponent's options and may effect in tangible gain. Strategies are usually contrasted with tactic, in which advantages take longer to be realized, and the enemy is less constrained in responding. With this application you can solve thousands of chess strategy puzzles grouped by theme (Decoy, Clearance, Deflection, Undermining, Interference, X-ray attack). Decoy is a strategy of luring a piece, usually the lord or queen, onto a particular square through the means of a sacrifice on that square, from which the piece's fresh placement can be exploited to receive an advantage. Clearance is a tactical motif which involves a square on the chessboard being vacated to begin up lines of attack. Deflection is a strategy that forces an opposing piece to leave the square, rank or file it occupies, thus exposing the lord or a valuable piece. Undermining is a chess strategy in which a defensive piece is captured, leaving one of the opponent's pieces undefended or under-defended. The enemy has the unpalatable choice of recapturing or saving the undefended piece. Interference occurs when the line between an attacked piece and its defender is interrupted by sacrificially interposing a piece. X-ray attack is a strategy where a piece either: indirectly attacks an opponent piece through other piece or pieces, or defends a friendly piece through an opponent piece.
