Субъект: The Chancellor Dichotomy

The poor Chancellor. As pawns come off the board, it's rook aura gains power, but its knight component loses power.

Since the Knight is the weakest of the conventional pieces once migrated to the 10x8 board, and the Rook is the piece that losest the least amount of power on the 10x8 board, it is hard to tell the net effect of the Chancellor's power change.

One thing that i s pretty cool...Archbishops dominate in the opening, Chancellors are wicked in the middlegame, and Queens tear up the endgame.

The question is....where do you excel, and how bad would you risk beating your opponent in the given stage of the game where the pieces will help you most?

Dang...leave it to the English teacher to misspell 'Chancellor' at every opportunity!
