Finally I dug out another source on Gala: Erwin Glonnegger, Das Spiele Buch, Hugendubel/Ravensburger, Ravensburg 1988. <p> Glonnegger says, that a Horsa moves inside the <em>Bruchlinien</em> only one square like a rook, and a Korna moves inside the <em>Bruchlinien</em> only one square like a bishop. Thus, coming from the corners it is impossible that a Korna or a Horsa moves twice across the </em>Bruchlinien</em>. <p> Unfortunately nothing is said about the movement from inside to outside. <p> --J'org Knappen
