In American Checkers, known also as English draughts the board consists of 64 squares (8x8 checkerboard). On the other hand international draughts is played on 10x10 gameboard, which means 100 squares.
To win an International Draughts game, you must utilize rules such as: backward capturing, majority capturing, and a flying king. #1 Use capturing backward. In international draughts, capturing backward is possible (unlike in American checkers). #2 “Majority capture” rule. #3 Use your king to capture more pieces.
How to begin playing draughts? The first move belongs to the player using white pieces. Players take turns every single move and the player is permitted to move only his own pieces. In general, pieces can be moved diagonally, forward and be placed on the empty field in the next row.
A win is scored when an opponent's pieces are all captured or blocked so that they cannot move. When neither side can force a victory and the trend of play becomes repetitious, a draw game is declared. Games similar to checkers were played in the days of the early Egyptian pharaohs (c.
It is played on an 8×8 checkerboard with 12 pieces per side. The pieces move and capture diagonally forward, until they reach the opposite end of the board, when they are crowned and can thereafter move and capture both backward and forward.
On their turn, a player makes a single roll with the two dice and attempts to score a specific number for each round. In round one, this number is 2, and the number increases by one for each successive round. So the target number to be rolled in round two is 3, and in round three the target number is 4, and so forth.
Players take turns to move a piece of their own colour. Any piece that reaches the far edge of the board is immediately crowned and is thereafter known as a "King". The act of crowning is a physical one - another piece of the same shade is placed on top of the piece in order to distinguish it from an ordinary piece.
32-28 19-23 Given the basic principles, the most logical way to start the game by white is 32-28 since it centralizes a piece and prepares to bring the less mobile piece in the corner (46) into the game.
