The attack, of course, was not on the Ubar's side but on the side of the Ubara, where Scormus had placed his Home Stone. - (Beasts of Gor, Chapter 4, Sentence #405)

Red's Ubar's Initiate controlled the Ubar's Initiate's Diagonal; the red Ubara controlled the Ubar's Physician's Diagonal; the red Ubar controlled the Ubar's Builder's Diagonal; the Ubar's Scribe controlled the Ubar's Scribe's Diagonal. Red controlled not one but four adjacent diagonals, unobstructed diagonals, each bearing on the citadel of yellow's home stone; the red Ubara threatened the Ubara's Scribe's Spearman at Ubara's Scribe Two; the Initiate threatened the Ubara's Builder at Builder Two, positioned directly before yellow's home stone; the Ubar threatened the Rider of the High Tharlarion at Builder Three; the Scribe threatened the Ubara's Flanking Spearman at Ubara's Initiate Three. I had never seen such power amassed so subtly in Kaissa. The attack, of course, was not on the Ubar's side but on the side of the Ubara, where Scormus had placed his home stone. Moves which had appeared to weaken red's position had served actually to produce an incredible lead in development; moves which had appeared meaningless or defensive had actually been deeply insidious; the timorous feint to the Ubar's side by red with the Ubara and Ubar had, in actuality, prepared a trap in which Scormus had little choice but to place his home stone. On his tenth move Centius of Cos moved his Rider of the High Tharlarion, which had been at Builder Three, obliquely to Builder Four. This opened the file of the Builder. - (Beasts of Gor, Chapter 4)
