Figure 1. A board with the checkers

in their initial position. An alternate

arrangement is the reverse of the one

shown here, with the home board on

the left and the outer board on the

right.

The points are numbered for either player starting in that player’s home board. The outermost point

is the twenty-four point, which is also the opponent’s one point. Each player has fifteen checkers of

his own color. The initial arrangement of checkers is: two on each player’s twenty-four point, five on

each player’s thirteen point, three on each player’s eight point, and five on each player’s six point.

Both players have their own pair of dice and a dice cup used for shaking. A doubling cube, with the

numerals 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 64 on its faces, is used to keep track of the current stake of the game.

Object of Game

The object of the game is for a player to move all of his checkers into his own home board and then

bear them off. The first player to bear off all of his checkers wins the game.
