The lesson in words
If, after a capture, your piece can capture again, it must keep going in the same move. The chain can change direction, and it can turn backwards.
Tap your man, then each landing square in turn.
Try it: Capture both black men in one move.
Once you start capturing, you finish the chain. Next: flying kings.
Questions
Which captures are allowed in Russian Checkers?
You choose. Captures are compulsory, but you don’t have to take the biggest one. (International draughts is different: there you must take the most.) Once you pick a capture, though, you must finish it.
