To play this game you need to have a composed brain and a cool head.
Thai chess has several differences than other chess. The only similarity lies in the moves of the ‘knight’. In Thai language it is called as ‘Ma’ i.e. ‘Horse’. Board size is usually 8 x 8. The board set up is same but the white Khun are facing the black Met. The pieces are set up from left to right. Namely Rua, Ma, Khon, Khun, Met, Khon, Ma, Rua. The Bia is placed on the third position in sixth row which is also dissimilar to world chess.
The movement of Khun can be explained as it can move one square in each of the directions. This is the most important one which can never die as because with the Khun’s death the game will come to an end. Khon or Bishop can move one square diagonally in each direction an also one square straight forward. Khon is usually used to save Khun. Sometimes it is more useful than knight or ma at the end. Met or queen can always move diagonally in each direction but the movement is for only one square. Ma can move whose action is similar to that of knight in world chess. Rua can also move and work just as rook in world chess. It can be proved as powerful if you are still having it till the end.
