Checkers

12 pieces each on the dark squares. White moves first.
A man moves one square diagonally forward but captures both forward and backward.
Capturing is mandatory. If the same piece can capture again, it must continue.
A man reaching the last row becomes a king that moves and captures any distance diagonally.
You lose with no pieces or no moves left. 30 king moves without a capture is a draw.

Long nardy: each player has 15 checkers, all starting on the “head”. Checkers travel around the board counter-clockwise into their home.
Roll two dice and move by the numbers — one checker by the total or two checkers separately. Doubles are played four times.
Only one checker may leave the head per turn. Exception: a first roll of 6-6, 4-4 or 3-3 lets two leave.
You can’t land on a point held by an opponent’s checker. You can’t build a wall of six in a row unless an opponent’s checker is already ahead of it.
When all 15 checkers are home, bear them off. The first to bear off all checkers wins.

Each player has a 10×10 grid and a fleet: one 4-deck, two 3-deck, three 2-deck and four 1-deck ships.
Ships never touch, even diagonally. They are placed for you — shuffle them before the first shot.
Fire at the enemy grid. Hit — fire again; miss — the opponent’s turn.
Cells around a sunk ship are marked automatically: no ships can be there.
Sink the whole enemy fleet first to win.

Each round, players take turns rolling five dice.
You may reroll any dice twice — mark the ones you keep.
The higher hand wins the round. First to 3 rounds wins.
Hands from high to low: five of a kind, four of a kind, full house, big straight 2–6, small straight 1–5, three of a kind, two pairs, pair.
Equal hands are decided by the higher dice.
