Re: [pbmserv-dev] quoridor 4 player?

Everyone is on his own side.  I don't own the game but
the pictures on the box show four starting pieces one
per side.  I believe that the Quoridor website also
has the complete rules.

The diagonal jump rule looked curious until I realized
that the effect is that you cannot block your
opponent's piece with your piece, only with fences.
