| Final Position |
A very easy checkmating pattern known to many as the "Rolling Rooks".
Rooks attack on files and ranks. When the board position is open the Rooks can
attack across each rank and file. This creates a fun checkmating pattern. Your two
rooks work as a team. One cuts off the forward moving rank or file while the other
checks your opponents King. The King is then forced backwards until it reaches the
rim where checkmate will be delivered by the available Rook.
