The Running Game Tactic
The aim of the Running Game plan is to entice all your chips into your inside board and pull them off as fast as you can. This plan concentrates on the speed of moving your chips with no efforts to hit or barricade your opponent’s pieces. The ideal time to use this technique is when you think you might be able to shift your own checkers faster than your opposition does: when 1) you have less checkers on the game board; 2) all your pieces have past your competitor’s checkers; or 3) your opposing player does not use the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Strategy
The primary goal of the blocking tactic, by the name, is to block the opponent’s chips, temporarily, while not worrying about moving your chips quickly. As soon as you have established the blockade for your competitor’s movement with a few pieces, you can move your other pieces quickly off the game board. You should also have an apparent strategy when to withdraw and shift the chips that you utilized for blocking. The game gets intriguing when your competitor uses the same blocking tactic.
