FAQ
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.
Play Un-crowned pieces can only move diagonally forwards but can capture diagonally forwards AND backwards. A Queen moves by diagonally traversing any number of unoccupied squares. Capturing is compulsory and where there is a choice, the move that captures the greatest number of pieces must be made.
Draughts-64 is played with 12 white or light colored men, and 12 black or dark colored men. 2.2. 2. At the start of the game, the 12 white men are put on the dark squares of the 1, 2, 3 horizontal rows and the 12 black men are put on the dark squares of the 6, 7, 8 horizontal rows (Diagram 2).
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.
King can move diagonally any number of fields, forwards or backwards - these are called "flying kings". King can stop on any square behind the piece that was captured. A piece becomes a king if it reaches the promotion line of the board (the most distant row on the opponent's side) and stops on it.
Draughts Setup. A board of 64 squares, arranged eight by eight and with chequered (hence the American name) squares used. We may label these darker and lighter squares to avoid confusion with the pieces: this is essentially a chessboard.
Starting position Each player starts with 12 men on the dark squares of the three rows closest to that player's side (see diagram). The row closest to each player is called the kings row or crownhead. The player with the darker-coloured pieces moves first. Then turns alternate.
