What is a advanced pawn?
An advanced pawn on the sixth or seventh rank is a tactical weapon: promotion threats win material, deflect defenders and create mating nets around the promotion square.

Any pawn two steps from queening changes every calculation. Count the cost the defender must pay to stop it — that cost is your combination budget.
What this set trains
These puzzles teach dynamic pawn value — recognizing when one pawn outweighs a piece.
