As we have dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a game of skill and luck. The goal is to move your checkers safely around the board to your home board and at the same time your opposition moves their chips toward their inner board in the opposing direction. With opposing player chips heading in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for specific tactics at specific instances. Here are the last two Backgammon tactics to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Strategy
If the goal of the blocking plan is to hamper the opponents ability to shift his pieces, the Priming Game tactic is to completely block any movement of the opposing player by assembling a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s chips will either get hit, or result a damaged position if he at all attempts to leave the wall. The ambush of the prime can be setup anywhere between point 2 and point eleven in your game board. As soon as you’ve successfully built the prime to block the activity of your opponent, the competitor doesn’t even get a chance to toss the dice, that means you move your pieces and roll the dice yet again. You’ll win the game for sure.
The Back Game Technique
The objectives of the Back Game technique and the Blocking Game plan are similar – to harm your opponent’s positions hoping to boost your odds of succeeding, but the Back Game strategy utilizes alternate tactics to achieve that. The Back Game tactic is commonly employed when you’re far behind your competitor. To play Backgammon with this technique, you have to control two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This plan is more complex than others to employ in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your checkers and how the pieces are relocated is partly the outcome of the dice toss.
