2
players at a time can play Queen's Guard.
Each player
gets one "Queen" and six guards for play.
The Queen's
Guard game board has 91 spaces.
The game
is won when a player succeeds in placing his "Queen" in the
center space and surrounds it on all sides with his guards.
To start
play, the pieces are placed as shown above in the top picture. (In the
example above, the black players Queen is the green marble shown on
the left.)
Each player
moves one piece in a turn. A piece may only be moved into an empty space.
A player that touches his piece must move that piece or forfeit his
turn.
Except
when a piece is trapped between two opposing pieces, it may be moved
one space sideways, or toward the center of the board as shown in example
"A" above.
If a guard
piece is trapped between two opposing pieces as shown in example "B"
above, the player must in his next turn move the trapped piece to any
empty space on the outside rim of the board. If more than one guard
is trapped, a player must move those pieces to the rim in turn before
any other moves may be made.
If a Queen
is trapped between two opposing pieces, see example "C" above,
it's owner must move it to any empty space that the opponent directs
him to place it.
Trapped
guards may be moved back in any order but a trapped Queen must always
be moved back before any guard is moved.
Only a
"Queen" may be placed in the center space. The game is forfeited
if a player positions all six guards in the spaces surrounding the center
space and it is empty.
This is
a tough and challenging strategy game.
This game
can be washed!
Game comes
with two sets of six marbles (may vary in color) to be played as guards
and two unique marbles to be played as "Queens" and instructions.
The hexagon board is approximately 10 & 1/4 inches in width (point
to point) and 3/4 inches tall.
