A 7-queen board today; the regions range from 1 cell to 14. There is a one-cell region at row 2, column 4; start there. 2 of the queens sit a knight's move from the one in the row above; not a rule, just the shape of today's answer.
Hints
Hint 1: where to start
Look at the 1-cell region that includes row 2, column 4 first: it has only one cell: that queen is free. Its queen lands in row 2.
Hint 2: a solid foothold
Row 2, column 4 takes the first queen, which clears the rest of row 2, the rest of column 4 and the rest of its region.
Hint 3: nearly there
Now count row 1: just 4 cells survive, and the queen is at row 1, column 6. Keep doing that row by row.
