As we dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a game of skill and good luck. The goal is to move your chips carefully around the game board to your home board and at the same time your opposition shifts their pieces toward their inner board in the opposing direction. With opposing player chips heading in opposite directions there is bound to be conflict and the requirement for particular tactics at particular instances. Here are the last 2 Backgammon plans to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Tactic
If the goal of the blocking plan is to hamper the opponents ability to move her checkers, the Priming Game strategy is to completely barricade any activity 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 damaged position if he ever attempts to leave the wall. The trap of the prime can be established anywhere between point two and point 11 in your half of the board. As soon as you have successfully built the prime to prevent the activity of your competitor, your opponent doesn’t even get to toss the dice, that means you shift your chips and toss the dice yet again. You will be a winner for sure.
The Back Game Strategy
The objectives of the Back Game plan and the Blocking Game technique are very similar – to harm your competitor’s positions with hope to better your odds of succeeding, however the Back Game strategy utilizes seperate tactics to do that. The Back Game tactic is frequently employed when you are far behind your competitor. To play Backgammon with this technique, you have to control 2 or more points in table, and to hit a blot late in the game. This tactic is more challenging than others to employ in Backgammon because it requires careful movement of your chips and how the pieces are moved is partly the outcome of the dice toss.
