Clearance (Advanced Tactics)

 

Clearance  Chess Tactics Resources

In chess, a clearance sacrifice is a tactical motif which involves a square on the chessboard being vacated to open up lines of attack. The tactic may also result in the substitution of a piece hindering the attack by a piece useful to the attack.
A line clearing tactic is typically when you sacrifice a pawn or a piece in order to open up a specific file or diagonal that your other pieces then can use.
