As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a game of ability and good luck. The goal is to move your chips carefully around the game board to your inside board while at the same time your opposing player shifts their chips toward their home board in the opposite direction. With opposing player pieces shifting in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for specific tactics at specific times. Here are the last 2 Backgammon plans to complete your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the goal of the blocking tactic is to slow down the opponent to move her pieces, the Priming Game plan is to completely block any movement of the opposing player by constructing a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s chips will either get bumped, or result a battered position if he at all attempts to leave the wall. The trap of the prime can be established anyplace between point two and point 11 in your board. As soon as you have successfully built the prime to stop the activity of your competitor, the competitor does not even get to roll the dice, that means you shift your pieces and roll the dice yet again. You’ll win the game for sure.
The Back Game Technique
The goals of the Back Game strategy and the Blocking Game plan are very similar – to harm your competitor’s positions in hope to improve your odds of succeeding, but the Back Game tactic uses alternate tactics to do that. The Back Game tactic is generally used when you are far behind your opponent. To play Backgammon with this plan, you have to hold two or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This plan is more complex than others to use in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the pieces are moved is partially the result of the dice roll.
