The goal of the players is to remove all the opponent's checkers from the field or bring them to such a situation., when the enemy is blocked or surrenders. There are several types of chess games., in Russia, Russian drafts are popular in the former Soviet republics and in Israel.
Unlike backgammon, there is no element of luck in checkers., when the dice give out the right amount of points. Players rely only on their own skills and on the mistakes of the enemy. Games in checkers can be compared to a fight, where there are tactics and strategy. An interesting feature of checkers is that an ordinary checker can become a king, if it manages to reach the opposite field of the enemy. If the player has a queen, his chances of winning are greatly increased. Another plus of checkers is that the player can plan moves like this, that in one move with an ordinary checker he can remove several enemy checkers from the field at once.
Playing chess makes you think, maybe it's not as exciting as backgammon, but more advanced, useful for children.
Backgammon is a board game, two players are needed to play, special board, chips and dice. The aim of the players is to move the checkers (chips) in accordance with the points dropped on the bones, make a full circle on the board with all checkers, occupy one part of the board with them (house) and remove from the board. Whoever was able to withdraw all the checkers first won. There are two main varieties - long and short backgammon.
The game is interesting, that players need to plan their moves in this way, so that they do not interfere with each other and that the player can withdraw all the checkers as soon as possible.
