You should always promote to a queen, with two exceptions:

1) You should promote to a Knight if a Knight on that square results in an immediate, game winning fork (or a game-saving fork)

2) You should promote to a Rook (or Bishop or Knight) if promoting to a queen would lead to an immedate stalemate, which results in a draw when you otherwise would have a win.
Your choice of piece would then depend on the situation on the board.

bid? When your pawn reachs the other side you can choose which major peice it should become which should be determined by the situation but usually calls for a queen unless a knight would lead to checkmate. regardless of whether or not you have lost your original queen. queen is the most powerful peice and two are better than one.

I would take an Edna. It is a little known chess tactic but when your pawn reaches the end and you still have your original queen you can take an Edna. An Edna is a great piece because it distracts your opponent and causes confusion and laughter and breaks up his concentration on the game leading to a quick victory for you.

Answer--Queen Edna

If you're not getting another queen, might as well get a knight since the queens can't move like the knight. But I usually get another queen.

The only piece besides a queen that is ever needed is a knight, and then only for a very specific reason (like putting the enemy in check).

If you already have a queen on the board, and you want the new piece to be a queen also, the standard procedure is to take one of your rooks that has been captured and turn it upside. I guess they chose rooks, because they are easy to balance on their head.
