In checkers, forced jump rules turn piece sacrifices into a lethal offensive weapon. Because your opponent MUST take a offered jump, you can dictate exactly where their piece lands!
1. The Infiltration Sacrifice
Offering a piece on square 18 forces the enemy to jump to 25, clearing square 18 and allowing your runner pawn to sprint unhindered to square 31 for an instant King promotion.
2. Board Setup & Strategic Positioning
A Slip Shot is a multi-piece sacrifice where you feed 1 or 2 checkers into enemy territory to pull their key defender out of position, setting up a 3-piece return jump on your turn.
