As we dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a game of talent and luck. The goal is to shift your pieces safely around the game board to your home board while at the same time your opposition moves their chips toward their inside board in the opposite direction. With competing player checkers heading in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for particular tactics at specific instances. Here are the last two Backgammon strategies to complete your game.

The Priming Game Plan

If the purpose of the blocking plan is to slow down the opponent to shift their checkers, the Priming Game plan is to absolutely stop any activity of the opponent by building a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The opponent’s chips will either get hit, or result a bad position if she ever tries to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be built anyplace between point 2 and point eleven in your board. Once you have successfully assembled the prime to block the movement of the competitor, the competitor does not even get to toss the dice, that means you shift your checkers and toss the dice yet again. You’ll win the game for sure.

The Back Game Technique

The aims of the Back Game strategy and the Blocking Game technique are similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions with hope to improve your chances of succeeding, however the Back Game tactic uses alternate techniques to do that. The Back Game strategy is frequently utilized when you’re far behind your opponent. To compete in Backgammon with this tactic, you need 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 employ in Backgammon seeing as it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the checkers are moved is partially the outcome of the dice roll.
