relative value of forces
let if a pawn hv power =1 unit
bishop hv power .......... =3 unut
knight too hv powr ....= 3unit
rook hv power ..............=5 unit
queen hv power .........= 9 unit
King is a vulnerable unit nd hv no relative value but hv dynamic value in most of endgames positions.
THUS the relative strength betwin forces shows dat a Bishop+2pawns = a Rook or R+B/N+ a pawn =a Queen.
three pawns = B or N etc.
Any of pieces generates most power from d center. hence control of Center is of prime importance.
Once one moves center pawns..his/her king is unsafe in d central lines. hence he/she shud castle to to keep KING safe nd same tym devlops the ROOK too

Ignorence of development by playing pre-cautious moves in d early opening like a3 & h3 or ....a6 & ...h6 cud be harmful in open or semi-open games.
For betr understanding of the idea pls see game no.764 wher black played ...h6?

Ultimate goal is in chess to checkmate opposing King. Checkmate is a position where u delivers a check (threaten to capture opposing King) nd ur opponant hv no room or no ways to save his majesty.
WINNING positions- 1)checkmate
2)-huge force advantage
.
.
after some moves there arises weaknesses in one or both players camp.
The basic aim shud be to create weakness/es in opposing camp (its other mattr if your opponant creates in his own camp).thus u hv minor/major advantages
WINNING is a accumulation of these advantages to convert into a big advantage.

beware of opening of lines by elimination of pawn near ur king. if u hd moved a pwan in front of ur king after castle, there is probability of a sacrifice from ur opponent to stipp off followed by heavy attack on ur king.Quote: zugzwang: exchange/s of pawns leads to open lines for ROOK/QUEEN. and diagonal/s for BISHOP.
so dont allow ur opponent to open lines on the side where u keeps ur king OR take defensive measure if dat happens or about to happen.
Try to open lines in the front where ur opponent places his/her KING.
ATTACK with adequate forces in that side of the board where u hv greater board control.

try to maintain atleast a pawn in d centre.
try to control the centre squares i.e. e4 ,d4,e5,d5, with pawns nd pieces
IMPORTANT Tip- once opening phase completes, try to break the centre in such a way dat ur most of pieces generate thier potential Energy..This is known as LIBERATING MOVE.
