The objective of a Backgammon game is to shift your pieces around the Backgammon board and get those pieces from the game board quicker than your opponent who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a match of Backgammon requires both tactics and fortune. How far you can move your checkers is left to the numbers from rolling a pair of dice, and just how you move your chips are determined by your overall playing tactics. Enthusiasts use differing strategies in the differing stages of a game depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Plan
The aim of the Running Game strategy is to bring all your checkers into your inside board and pull them off as quickly as you can. This tactic focuses on the speed of moving your pieces with little or no time spent to hit or block your competitor’s pieces. The ideal time to employ this tactic is when you believe you can move your own checkers quicker than the opposition does: when 1) you have less checkers on the board; 2) all your pieces have past your competitor’s pieces; or 3) the opponent does not use the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Strategy
The main aim of the blocking plan, by the name, is to stop your opponent’s pieces, temporarily, while not fretting about shifting your chips quickly. As soon as you’ve created the blockage for your competitor’s movement with a few chips, you can move your other checkers quickly from the board. The player should also have a clear plan when to back off and shift the pieces that you employed for the blockade. The game gets interesting when your opponent uses the same blocking technique.
