The Queen is the most powerful piece on the board. She can move any number of squares in any direction - horizontal, vertical or diagonal - if her path is not blocked.

As you can see in the animation there is an example of the Queen taking pieces off the board, as you can see, there is no distance restriction as well as no direction restriction.
