<a name="faqs_q1"></a>
<h3>1. How is it decided which player is black and which is white?</h3>
<p>Which player is black, and which is white, is decided by a coin toss.</p>
<div class="hr"></div>
<a name="faqs_q2"></a> <h3>2. Can I 'power up' my pieces?</H3>
<p>Pieces cannot be 'powered up' in the traditional videogaming sense. If, however, you move one of your pawns to the opposite side end the board, it can be converted to a queen, rook, bishop or knight.</p>
<div class="hr"></div>
<a name="faqs_q3"></a> <h3>3. What is 'castling'?</H3>
<p>Castling is a sometimes-useful defensive move that can only be performed with a king and rook, under specific conditions. For more detail, check out the in-game instructions for the king and rook pieces.</p>
<div class="hr"></div>
<a name="faqs_spec"></a>
<h3>4. What are the minimum specifications for this game?</h3>
<p>The minimum specifications we recommend for this game are:</p>
<ul>
<li>500 MHz
<li>128 MB RAM
</ul>
<p>The <b>recommended</b> specifications for getting the most out of this game are:</p>
<ul>
<li>1.5 GHz
<li>256 MB RAM
</ul>
<p>Below is an explanation of the terms in our technical specifications.</p>
<p><b>Megahertz (MHz) / Gigahertz (GHz)</b> is a measure of how fast your computer's processor is. This affects how quickly you can run things like games and applications.</p>
<p><b>Megabytes (MB)</b> are used to measure how much memory your computer has. This affects how quickly your computer runs when using large programs such as games, or when you run a lot of programs at once.</p>
