Without thinking about it too much... are you a bishop or a knight person?

[Derek Sinclair]

I know it depends on the position but what piece do you prefer.

[John Upham]

I know it depends on the position but what piece do you prefer.

I suspect asking several actresses (if we are allowed to use that term) will provide the responses you seek.

[Derek Sinclair]

not sure what you mean

[Matt Mackenzie]

not sure what you mean

Which minor piece do you, other things being equal, prefer?

[Derek Sinclair]

Knight

[John Upham]

Knight

Is this regardless of the position and / or pawn structure?

[IM Jack Rudd]

Bishop, in general.

[Andrew Smith]

A Bishop. I would guess that 75% would be the same. Those that favour Knights are probably either right tricky customers or else someone who prefers to aim for stodgy blocked positions where a Knight rules supreme !

[Nick Ivell]

Bishop.

[Richard Bates]

Knight.

Andy nailed it.

[LawrenceCooper]

Maybe knight as I play the Nimzo and sometimes the Tromp but it all depends on the position.

[MJMcCready]

Anand likes his knights its often been said.

[Andrew Smith]

I guess that finishes that debate, Nick

[Kevin Williamson]

If you play the Veresov and the Chigorin (as I do) then you have to love the knight

[Matt Mackenzie]

Fischer played the Exchange Ruy Lopez regularly, but also liked his Bishops more generally.
