My all time favorite board game is checkers. Checkers is also known as draughts.The objective of the game
is to remove or "kill" all of your opponent's pieces from the board.You start the game by setting up the
board.This is done by placing your twelve pieces on every other square facing you, and your opponent
placing his twelve pieces on every other square facing him. Next take turns moving one space diagonally.At
this point you can only move forward, while thinking of different strategies to use while you progress.One of
your advantage is to "jump" or "kill" when an opponent piece is one space from yours.Once this is done that
piece is removed from the board.The goal is to get to your opponent side of the board.When this happens
you are now "king." It is now easier to "kill" or jump over the opponent pieces when you are" king" The
game is over and you have won when all your opponent pieces are removed from the board.
