castled
In the context of chess, "castled" refers to a special move that involves the king and one of the rooks. It is the only move that allows a player to move two pieces at once. It's typically employed to improve the king's safety and connect the rooks. The king moves two squares towards the rook on its initial square, then the rook moves to the square the king skipped over. Before castling can occur, there must be no pieces between the king and the rook, neither piece can have moved previously, and the king cannot be in check or move through check. This move is extremely strategic and can shift the balance of the game. This definition is specific to the game of chess, as the term "castled" doesn't have a widely used meaning outside this context.
