Posted in Backgammon on 01/23/2024 12:25 pm by MadisynThe goal of a Backgammon game is to move your chips around the Backgammon board and get them off the game board faster than your opposing player who works harder to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Winning a match of Backgammon requires both tactics and fortune. Just how far you can move your pieces is left to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and how you move your chips are determined by your overall playing plans. Players use a few plans in the different parts of a match dependent on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The aim of the Running Game tactic is to entice all your chips into your inside board and pull them off as quick as you can. This tactic concentrates on the pace of shifting your pieces with no efforts to hit or stop your competitor’s pieces. The ideal scenario to use this tactic is when you believe you might be able to shift your own chips faster than the opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer pieces on the board; 2) all your chips have past your opponent’s pieces; or 3) your opponent does not use the hitting or blocking technique.
The Blocking Game Technique
The primary goal of the blocking tactic, by the title, is to stop your opponent’s checkers, temporarily, not worrying about shifting your checkers rapidly. Once you have established the barrier for the competitor’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can shift your other pieces swiftly off the board. The player will need to also have a good plan when to extract and move the checkers that you used for blocking. The game gets interesting when your competitor uses the same blocking tactic.
