As we dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a game of skill and good luck. The goal is to shift your chips safely around the board to your inner board while at the same time your opposing player shifts their pieces toward their inside board in the opposing direction. With competing player pieces heading in opposite directions there is going to be conflict and the requirement for specific tactics at particular times. Here are the 2 final Backgammon plans to finish off your game.
The Priming Game Plan
If the purpose of the blocking tactic is to hamper the opponents ability to shift her chips, 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 pieces will either get bumped, or end up in a bad position if he ever tries to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be built anyplace between point two and point 11 in your board. As soon as you’ve successfully built the prime to block the activity of your opponent, your competitor does not even get a chance to toss the dice, and you move your chips and roll the dice yet again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Tactic
The objectives of the Back Game tactic and the Blocking Game tactic are similar – to hinder your opponent’s positions with hope to boost your odds of winning, however the Back Game technique relies on alternate techniques to achieve that. The Back Game technique is often utilized when you’re far behind your opponent. To participate in Backgammon with this technique, you have to hold two or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single checker) late in the game. This tactic is more complex than others to employ in Backgammon seeing as it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the pieces are relocated is partially the result of the dice roll.
