The goal of a Backgammon game is to move your chips around the game board and get them from the game board quicker than your opponent who works harder to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Succeeding in a round in Backgammon requires both tactics and luck. How far you will be able to move your chips is left to the numbers from tossing the dice, and the way you move your checkers are decided on by your overall playing tactics. Players use different tactics in the differing stages of a game dependent on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Tactic
The goal of the Running Game plan is to entice all your chips into your home board and get them off as fast as you can. This plan concentrates on the pace of advancing your checkers with no efforts to hit or stop your competitor’s checkers. The best scenario to use this tactic is when you believe you might be able to shift your own chips quicker than your opposition does: when 1) you have less chips on the game board; 2) all your checkers have past your competitor’s checkers; or 3) your opponent doesn’t use the hitting or blocking tactic.
The Blocking Game Strategy
The main aim of the blocking tactic, by the title, is to stop the opponent’s chips, temporarily, not fretting about shifting your pieces quickly. As soon as you have created the blockage for your competitor’s movement with a couple of pieces, you can shift your other checkers rapidly off the board. The player will need to also have a good strategy when to back off and move the pieces that you utilized for blocking. The game gets intriguing when your competitor utilizes the same blocking strategy.
