As we dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a casino game of talent and pure luck. The goal is to move your pieces carefully around the game board to your inside board while at the same time your opposing player shifts their checkers toward their inner board in the opposing direction. With competing player chips moving in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for particular techniques at particular instances. Here are the 2 final Backgammon plans to complete your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the aim of the blocking plan is to hamper the opponents ability to shift her chips, the Priming Game strategy is to absolutely barricade any activity of the opponent by assembling a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s checkers will either get bumped, or end up in a battered position if he/she ever attempts to leave the wall. The ambush of the prime can be built anyplace between point two and point 11 in your board. After you have successfully assembled the prime to prevent the activity of the opponent, the opponent doesn’t even get to roll the dice, that means you shift your checkers and toss the dice yet again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Tactic
The objectives of the Back Game plan and the Blocking Game strategy are very similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions hoping to boost your chances of succeeding, but the Back Game tactic utilizes seperate tactics to do that. The Back Game tactic is generally employed when you’re far behind your opponent. To play Backgammon with this tactic, you need to hold two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This tactic is more difficult than others to use in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your chips and how the checkers are moved is partly the result of the dice toss.
