Hmm not quite. Rooks move and attack in straight lines: i.e. along ranks and files.

....X...
....X...
....X...
XXXXRXXX
....X...
....X...
....X...
....X...

Knights move and attack in an L pattern like so:

.X.X.
X...X
..N..
X...X
.X.X.

Pawns move like so:

.X.
.X.
.P.
...

however they can only move two squares on their first move. They capture like this:

X.X
.P.
...

Bishops move and attack diagonally like so:

.X.....X
..X...X.
...X.X..
....B...
...X.X..
..X...X.
.X.....X
X.......

Queens move and attack as a rook or bishop:

.X..X..X
..X.X.X.
...XXX..
....Q...
...XXX..
..X.X.X.
.X..X..X
X...X...

Kings are like queens, but can only move one square at a time. Also, a king can never get closer than 2 squares away from another king.

Mine too!

(Legend: . = empty square. N = knight, R = rook, Q = queen, B = bishop, P = pawn, X = "legal' move. "Legal" because there are restrictions: Rooks/bishops/queens/pawns cannot jump over other pieces and must land on an unoccupied square unless capturing an opposing piece. Knights may jump over pieces but must land on an empty square unless capturing an opposing piece.)
