	Description Edit \| History

A version of an old strategy game known as Queen's Guards.

Played on a Chinese Checkers-like board, the object is to get your Queen into the center cup and to surround her with her six guards. Pieces move only sideways or towards the middle, one cup each turn, but when guards are trapped between two enemy pieces they are returned to the outside ring. Queens can be replaced anywhere if trapped.
