Tavli is a set of three gammon games... portes, plakoto and fevga. They are usually played as a set for points. Portes is virtually the same as backgammon on here.
I bet there'll be a load of Greeks coming to the site when you do have tavli! Although portes is the most popular individual game, the set of three is regularly played in tavernas and the coffee shops.
Fencer: I think I tend to agree with furbster and BBW that the game would be an interesting addition to the suite of backgammon games, both as an individual game and as a point match using the cube.
Without a cube, luck would play more into a game - but like furbster said - would probable be just as fun without the cube.
One of the reasons I suggest Hypergammon is that is uses the same rules as regular backgammon, so little new programming would be needed.
Some other Gammon variant suggestions I have, but of course each would take more programming and such so would be more time to make are:
1) A mix between Tabula gammon and Russian Gammon. Basicly like "race", all pieces start off the board - BOTH players race the same direction around the board, bring in their pieces in the same area - can only move their pieces 1/2 way around the board until all of their pieces have entered the board - 2 dice only - no special double rules - rest of the rules like current gammon/race rules.
2) Domino-Gammon - I have since seen some other versions talked about, but linked are the rules that I have made up for the game.
I'm not sure if any1 likes another game which is on the site that BBW has posted up, called crazy narde. i think this varient is quite fun and i'm just starting to understand it:o)
I pulled a 4 and 6 dice ...had to use the 4 to come off the bar and when I clicked on the tile to move 6 spaces it only went three (tried twice) why would this happen?
