look at the amazon page under tournaments....

any way here are they... you play on a 10x10 chess board, with only 4 queens a person. (so this should explain there movement). The aim of the game is to block your opponent for a legal move. A legal move consists out of 2 parts. The first is a queen move from regular chess (except you can't capture a opponent piece), and an 'arrow' which can be shot in any place a queenmove could be done. Again you can't kill a opponent queen this way, the arrow causes the spot where it lands to disappear from the board. (you can't pass over such a spot anymore)
I hope this pretty much explains the game. Veel succes!
