Advice
to Chess Players: "Two rooks are better than one.
If you get two of us rooks lined up on a file we can be
very powerful. Almost as powerful as a queen (but don't
tell her I said that!) We don't like being stuck behind
pawns, so open up some space for us to move up and down,
side to side." (Excerpt of a secret message delivered
