  Shad Yantra is more or less mentioned by many Indian scholars in Ancient times, and their 6 principles are almost similar.
  Dashpaad board (10×10) was designed in such a manner that Shad Yantra game can accomodate these 6 principles protocols.
  Modern Chess has only Four principles with grossly incorrect moves.
  One such verse in Samskrit language talks about Shad Yantra:
  वश्याकर्षणयो रक्ता श्यामा स्तंभविरोधयोः।
  निग्रहोच्चाटयोः कृष्णा श्वेता मोक्षपरोक्षयोः।।
  
  Shad Yantra eloborates its basic principles in 6 categories:
      वश्य (Attracting)
      स्तंभ (Stopping)
      विरोध (Opposing)
      निग्रह (Killing/Ending)
      उच्चाटन (Warding off)
      मोक्ष / शान्ति (Peace)
  
  Other writers have their own version.
