tempos
Meanings
Tempo, ganancia de tiempo
A move which is part of one's own plan or strategy and forces, e.g. by means of a check or attacking a piece, the opponent to make a move which is not bad but of no use for him (the player gains a tempo, the opponent loses a tempo), or equivalently a player achieves the same result in fewer moves by one approach rather than another.
Examples :
"The chess player gained two tempos by attacking the queen with a pawn, forcing the opponent to waste moves defending instead of developing their own attack. "
El jugador de ajedrez ganó dos tempos al atacar a la dama con un peón, obligando al oponente a perder movimientos defendiendo en lugar de desarrollar su propio ataque.
