Just how far you can move your chips is up to the numbers from rolling the dice, and just how you shift your chips are decided on by your overall playing plans. Enthusiasts use a few plans in the differing stages of a match dependent on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The goal of the Running Game technique is to entice all your checkers into your inside board and get them off as quick as you can. This tactic concentrates on the pace of advancing your chips with little or no efforts to hit or stop your competitor’s checkers. The ideal time to use this technique is when you think you can move your own checkers quicker than the opposing player does: when 1) you have less chips on the game board; 2) all your chips have moved beyond your opponent’s checkers; or 3) the opponent doesn’t use the hitting or blocking strategy.
The Blocking Game Plan
The primary aim of the blocking technique, by the name, is to block your competitor’s pieces, temporarily, not fretting about moving your checkers rapidly. After you’ve established the barrier for your competitor’s movement with a few checkers, you can move your other checkers quickly off the board. You will need to also have a good strategy when to withdraw and shift the pieces that you employed for the blockade. The game becomes interesting when the opponent utilizes the same blocking tactic.
