The objective of a Backgammon game is to move your checkers around the Backgammon board and pull those pieces from the game board faster than your opponent who works harder to achieve the same buthowever they move in the opposing direction. Winning a match of Backgammon requires both tactics and good luck. Just how far you can move your checkers is up to the numbers from rolling the dice, and just how you shift your pieces are decided on by your overall playing tactics. Players use a few techniques in the differing stages of a match depending on your positions and opponent’s.
The Running Game Tactic
The aim of the Running Game strategy is to entice all your chips into your inside board and pull them off as quickly as you could. This tactic focuses on the pace of advancing your pieces with no efforts to hit or barricade your competitor’s chips. The best time to employ this technique is when you think you might be able to move your own pieces a lot faster than the opponent does: when 1) you have less chips on the game 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 Tactic
The primary goal of the blocking technique, by the name, is to stop your competitor’s checkers, temporarily, while not worrying about moving your pieces quickly. Once you have established the blockade for your opponent’s movement with a couple of chips, you can move your other chips swiftly off the game board. The player will need to also have a clear plan when to back off and shift the checkers that you utilized for the blockade. The game gets interesting when your opposition utilizes the same blocking strategy.
