Topics: Battle Games : Amazons

A kind of mix between chess and go, Amazons was invented in 1988 by Walter Zamkauskas. It is played on a 10x10 board with 4 white amazons and 4 black amazons starting along the boundary of the board. Amazons move like chess queens, moving only over unoccupied squares, and after a move shoot an arrow to a square accessible by a queen move. That square is now occupied, and cannot be moved over or shot over. The last player to move wins.
