The Basics of Backgammon Tactics – Part 1
The goal of a Backgammon game is to shift your checkers around the game board and bear those pieces off the game board quicker than your competitor who works just as hard to do the same buthowever they move in the opposite direction. Succeeding in a match in Backgammon needsrequires both strategy and fortune. Just how far you will be able to move your pieces is left to the numbers from tossing the dice, and how you shift your chips are decided on by your overall playing plans. Players use a number of tactics in the different stages of a game depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Technique
The aim of the Running Game tactic is to bring all your checkers into your inside board and get them off as fast as you can. This tactic concentrates on the pace of shifting your checkers with little or no efforts to hit or block your opponent’s checkers. The best time to use this technique is when you think you might be able to move your own checkers a lot faster than the opposing player does: when 1) you have less chips on the board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your competitor’s chips; or 3) the opposing player doesn’t use the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Strategy
The primary aim of the blocking tactic, by its name, is to block your opponent’s checkers, temporarily, not fretting about shifting your checkers rapidly. Once you have created the blockade for your opponent’s movement with a few checkers, you can shift your other pieces quickly from the game board. You should also have a clear plan when to extract and shift the checkers that you used for blocking. The game becomes interesting when your opposition uses the same blocking strategy.
