1. King - The king's main function is to protect itself and avoid being captured by the opponent. It also plays a crucial role in the endgame by helping to checkmate the opponent's king.
2. Queen - The queen is the most powerful piece on the board and can move in any direction as many squares as it wants. Its main function is to control the center of the board, attack the opponent's pieces, and support the other pieces in the game.
3. Rook - The rook can move horizontally or vertically as many squares as it wants. Its main function is to control open files, support the other pieces in the game, and help in the endgame by checkmating the opponent's king.
4. Bishop - The bishop can move diagonally as many squares as it wants. Its main function is to control the long diagonals on the board, attack the opponent's pieces, and support the other pieces in the game.
5. Knight - The knight moves in an L-shape, two squares in one direction and then one square in a perpendicular direction. Its main function is to control the center of the board, attack the opponent's pieces, and support the other pieces in the game.
6. Pawn - Pawns can only move forward one square at a time, but they capture diagonally. Their main function is to control the center of the board, support the other pieces in the game, and promote to a more powerful piece when reaching the opponent's back rank.
