Kimberly,
I suspect you're misunderstanding Daniel's question. He's not asking
"Can I only move one space per turn?" But "Do I move a space, then
check the arrows on the new space to se where I'm allowed to move
before I move the to the next space?"
Let me give an example:

Daniel's question is
> "You can't
> use three movement points to move your pawn three spaces in the
> direction of one of its current arrows?"
Using the picture above, looking at the blue pawn, there is an arrow
pointing "south". If I rolled a 2, could I look at that arrow, and
move the blue pawn on to the red pawn? The answer is no, as the space
between the two pawns has no south-facing arrow. You'd move the pawn
one square south, and then look again so see which directions you're
allowed to go, then move one square, and look again.
That, I believe, is what Daniel means by "one space at a time". Not
"one space per turn".
