The objective of a Backgammon game is to shift your checkers around the game board and get those pieces off the game board faster than your challenger who works harder to do the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a game in Backgammon requires both tactics and good luck. Just how far you will be able to move your pieces is left to the numbers from tossing the dice, and how you move your pieces are determined by your overall playing tactics. Players use different tactics in the differing stages of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Strategy
The goal of the Running Game tactic is to entice all your pieces into your home board and bear them off as fast as you can. This strategy concentrates on the pace of advancing your chips with absolutely no efforts to hit or stop your opponent’s pieces. The ideal time to use this technique is when you think you might be able to shift your own pieces faster than your opposition does: when 1) you have less pieces on the board; 2) all your chips have past your competitor’s chips; or 3) your opposing player does not use the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Technique
The main goal of the blocking tactic, by the title, is to stop the opponent’s pieces, temporarily, while not fretting about moving your chips quickly. As soon as you have established the blockade for the opponent’s movement with a few checkers, you can shift your other chips quickly from the board. You should also have an apparent strategy when to extract and move the checkers that you employed for blocking. The game becomes intriguing when your competitor uses the same blocking tactic.
