Nackgammon

For Nackgammon we have a term and definition in Backgammon.



Nackgammon (Backgammon)

[Named after Nack Ballard, who popularized the game.] A backgammon variant played using the same rules as regular backgammon except for the starting position. Players start with 2 checkers on each of the opponent's one-point and two-point, 4 checkers on the mid-point, 3 checkers on the eight-point, and 4 checkers on the six-point. With fewer checkers up front for attacking, and more checkers back for anchoring and maneuvering, games tend to be longer and more positional. See: How to Play Nackgammon.
