The only difference between this variation and standard American checkers is in the opening position. Everything else remains the same.
This is NOT International Checkers, which is also played on a 10x10 board. This variation is simply standard American checkers played on a bigger board.
Because the board is bigger, you will have to plan further in advance. As in regular checkers, attack the opponent's weak squares in the upper left corner. Maintain control of the center. Because of the large board, a flanking maneuver along the sides may be more viable than on a standard 8 x 8 board.
Checkers or "Draughts" has been played since medieval times, but was derived from a much older Arab game, "Alquerque".
