Step 2 Series

Step 2 extra

Workbook Step 2 extra

The first part of the workbook contains exercises of topics covered in Step 2 as well as a selection of the higher level topics from Step 1:

  • Getting out of check
  • Mate in one
  • Double attack: queen
  • The pin
  • Eliminating of the defence: chasing away/luring away/capturing + material
  • Mate in two: different mating patterns
  • Double attack: RBNKp
  • Double attack: cooperation of two pieces
  • Discovered attack
  • Defending against mate
  • Intermediate move

The last 10 pages are mixed tasks without a theme indication. That means that there is no hint as to the theme of the exercise, with the result that they are more like a real game.
