'''Pawns''' are the least valuable pieces in [[chess]], but fundamental to successful strategy because there are so many of them (8 per side).

A few tips on pawn strategy:

* pawns in the center of the board are more valuable in the middle game than in the endgame
* pawns are the only pieces that cannot move backwards, so it can be a mistake to get overextended in advancing them.
Isolated central pawns are usually stronger in the middle game, but weaker in the endgame.
* if behind by a minor piece then consider trading pawns because no one can checkmate with only a minor piece and a king
