As we dicussed in the last article, Backgammon is a game of ability and good luck. The goal is to shift your checkers safely around the board to your inner board and at the same time your opposition moves their pieces toward their home board in the opposing direction. With competing player pieces shifting in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for specific techniques at particular times. Here are the 2 final Backgammon plans to complete your game.
The Priming Game Plan
If the goal of the blocking tactic is to hamper the opponents ability to shift their pieces, the Priming Game tactic is to completely stop any movement of the opponent by assembling a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s chips will either get bumped, or result a damaged position if he/she at all tries to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be setup anyplace between point two and point 11 in your game board. After you have successfully built the prime to prevent the activity of your opponent, your opponent doesn’t even get a chance to toss the dice, and you move your checkers and toss the dice yet again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Tactic
The objectives of the Back Game technique and the Blocking Game strategy are very similar – to hurt your opponent’s positions hoping to boost your odds of succeeding, however the Back Game plan uses seperate tactics to do that. The Back Game technique is generally utilized when you are far behind your opponent. To play Backgammon with this technique, you need to hold 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single piece) late in the game. This strategy is more difficult than others to employ in Backgammon seeing as it requires careful movement of your chips and how the chips are moved is partly the outcome of the dice roll.
