In 2 words game
Hello everyone!
Today we're going to talk about Backgammon!
Place your pieces, with 2 players from 6 years old for 20 to 30 minutes, to try to get them out and win points!
The game board is divided into 4 frames or dials. Each frame is made up of 6 arrows. These represent the squares of the game. Each piece will move on these arrows according to the roll of the 2 dice.
The board is separated by the bar separating the inner frames from the outer frames. The Videau (Vido) is a 6-sided die whose values are: 2-4-8-16-32-64; it will be used to bid during the game. The 15 white and black pawns must be arranged on the board symmetrically.
Each player rolls the die, the one who rolls the highest die starts. The pawns move in opposite directions to each other. For white in a clockwise direction and for black in the opposite direction. The pawns never move back.
The player starting the game rolls his two dice. This roll of the dice indicates how many squares the player must advance his pawns.
The player can advance:
• 2 pawns each of the value of one of the dice
• 1 pawn of the value of the two dice combined.
Each pawn played can land on:
• An arrow occupied by pawns of its color
• An empty arrow
If the arrival arrow is occupied by 2 or more opposing pawns, movement is not possible. If the arrow is occupied by a single opposing pawn, the player's pawn takes the place of the opposing pawn, which is then captured and placed on the bar.
In all cases, you must always move forward exactly by the value obtained on the dice. If this is not possible, the player passes his turn.
When a player rolls a double (both dice are the same value), the points obtained are multiplied by two. For example, having rolled two 4s, you can move a pawn forward 16 squares; two pawns of 8 or a pawn of 4 and another of 12 or choose to move four pawns of 4. Each die must be feasible. A player cannot pass his turn if the move is possible.
When a pawn is going to stop on an arrow where there is only one opponent's pawn, he "takes" it. We say that the pawn is "captured". The opposing player then places his captive pawn on the central part of the board called the bar. He must absolutely remove his pawn(s) from this space to continue to advance his other pawns.
To put a captive pawn back into play, the player rolls both dice and can use one of the two dice that interests him. The value of the unused die is lost. You cannot put several pawns back into play at the same time. The pawn that comes into play takes "prisoner" the one on the arrival arrow (if it is alone and it is an opponent's pawn).
When all of a player's pawns have finally arrived in his home board, he will be able to remove them from the board. A pawn can only leave if it gets the exact number on the die (just beyond the edge of the board).
For example, if a pawn is 4 arrows away from the exit, it can exit with a 5. Once it is out, a pawn can no longer re-enter the game. The doubling cube, the 6-sided die (whose values are: 2-4-8-16-32-64) will indicate the number of points at stake in the game.
The game starts with a base value of 1 point. If during the game, a player thinks he has a chance of winning, he can ask to change the base value (before rolling his dice) by doubling the game.
His opponent can then accept and continue the game with a new stake that can evolve, be doubled again during the game and so on. The player who accepts the double will be the only one who can double the game again.
If the opponent on the other hand does not accept, he abandons the game and gives his opponent the number of points indicated by the doubling cube.
The first player to get his 15 pieces out wins the game. The winner scores the number of points indicated by the cube. If the losing player has not bought back or removed a single one of his pieces from the board, the winner is said to have made a Gammon. He multiplies the points on the cube by 2. If the losing player still has pieces in the winner's home board, or prisoners, the winner is said to have made a Backgammon. He multiplies the points on the cube by 3.
Have a good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone!
Games of chance and divination
Dice and cones were used for divination and omens. They were thrown on the table. If the throw was good, it was a good omen, otherwise it did not bode well. The throw of Venus with the knucklebones brought luck in love if all the knucklebones were on their sides.
The cottable was used to read the destiny of lovers with a cup in hand. When the wine was thrown, the noise it made when falling determined whether it was a good or bad omen.
Have a good day and good game ;)
