A top down strategy where all pieces start out on the central Bar and can be entered at any time with the roll of the dice.No piece NEEDS to be moved from the bar first, even if it was hit and sent to the bar.
A roll of 1-2 (acey deucey) allows a player to choose whichever doublet s/he wants, after making the 1-2 move.After moving the doublets, the player is awarded another dice roll.If, after moving your doublet, the other dice roll is 1-2, you can move the 1-2 and choose another doublet.
