The Basics of Backgammon Tactics – Part 1
The goal of a Backgammon game is to shift your pieces around the Backgammon board and bear them from the board faster than your competitor who works harder to attempt the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a match of Backgammon needsrequires both tactics and luck. How far you can shift your checkers is left to the numbers from tossing a pair of dice, and how you move your pieces are decided on by your overall gambling tactics. Players use differing tactics in the different parts of a match based on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Tactic
The aim of the Running Game tactic is to lure all your pieces into your inner board and get them off as quick as you can. This tactic concentrates on the pace of advancing your chips with absolutely no efforts to hit or barricade your competitor’s checkers. The best scenario to employ this tactic is when you think you might be able to move your own chips quicker than the opponent does: when 1) you have a fewer pieces on the game board; 2) all your checkers have moved beyond your competitor’s pieces; or 3) your opponent doesn’t employ the hitting or blocking technique.
The Blocking Game Tactic
The primary goal of the blocking strategy, by its name, is to block your competitor’s checkers, temporarily, while not worrying about shifting your pieces rapidly. After you’ve established the blockade for the competitor’s movement with a few checkers, you can move your other checkers swiftly from the board. The player should also have an apparent strategy when to extract and shift the chips that you utilized for the blockade. The game becomes intriguing when the opposition uses the same blocking technique.
