pawns or knights. knights jump over other pieces pawns only up but can move up two on first move

Any of the PAWNS on the front row can be moved either 1 or 2 squares straight forward (not diagonally).<br><br>Also, either of the 2 KNIGHTs can be moved. The knights move 2 forward then 1 to the left or right. (Once they are in open play the knight can move in any direction following the L-shape 2 and 1 square format.)<br>
