Like the ROOK and BISHOP but unlike the PAWN, the QUEEN captures in the same way as it moves.
In this position the QUEEN can CAPTURE the Black pawns on b7, d3 and h4.
The QUEEN cannot jump over other pieces. In this position the White pawn on b4 stops the QUEEN moving to a4 and the White pawn on e3 stops the QUEEN moving to e2 or e1.
Note also that if the QUEEN moved to c6 it would be CAPTURED by the Black pawn on b7, so this move would not be safe.
Easy, isn't it? Let's see how much you can remember.
