Each of the pawns can move forward 1 space............8 choices.
Each of the pawns can move forward 2 spaces..........8 choices.
King's knight can go over a pawn and left or right........2 choices
Queen's knight can go over a pawn and left or right....2 choices
If your question really belongs in the riddles category.. 1 first move. After that, it is no longer a first move.

There are two possibilities for each pawn. There are eight pawns. So there are 16 possible pawn moves. The knight has two possible moves. There two knights. So there are 4 possible knight moves. No other piece can move unless a pawn or a knight moves first. Totally, there are 16 + 4 = 20 possible opening moves.

Your pawns (the smallest pieces) can either move one or two spaces at the start of the game.

Well, the first move you make to initiate gameplay roll on is usually... one time. After that, it's not the first move anymore.

This depends on how many men are still on the board, which men are still on the board, and how many and where the opposing pieces are.
