THE FMJD 
(WORLD DRAUGHTS FEDERATION) 
VERSION

THE THREE VOLUMES


The above quote from Sun Tzu are adequately represented in this research work as it showed us how the simple games help us to better understand the complex games.

"Draughts Game;  The Methodology of a Strong Computer Draughts Programme - E-Book" is a comprehensive study into THE PROCESSES OF A STRONG COMPUTER DRAUGHTS PROGRAMME that plays the FMJD (World Draughts Federation) Version rules based on the majority capture rule - where a sequence must capture the maximum possible number of pieces.  The Computer Draughts Programme Under Study plays international 10 x 10 draughts.  It is one of the strongest draughts programme available.  It has participated in various computer tournaments since 1996.  In fact it is ranked among the top three (3) programmes in draughts game.

Every aspiring draughts player will give their right hand to get into the minds of the International Grand Masters (GMI/GMIF) to see how their minds work to get a better understanding of the game of draughts.  Since aspiring players/readers cannot get into their minds, this study tend to do just that by getting into the mind of a very strong Computer Draughts Programme (CDP) to UNDERSTAND THE PROCESSES THAT LEAD UP TO THE EXECUTION OF ITS TRAPS OR SHOTS IN ORDER TO GAIN A THOROUGH UNDERSTANDING OF THE GAME TO GAIN THE NEEDED MASTERY TO PLAY TO THE HIGHEST LEVEL

This System is a "COMPUTER DRAUGHTS PROGRAMME - STRUCTURED SCIENTIFIC SYSTEM OF PLAY.  The System shows the Multi-Dimentional, yet Inter-Connectivity of how the Computer Draughts Programme Plays its Games.

THE REFERENCE SECTIONS

To Further buttress the point(s) being discussed on the different topics by the Computer Draughts Progarmme (CDP) under study, we also take a look at INTERNATIONAL TOURNAMENT GAMES/WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCHES.  In other words, the references shows us how these International Grand Masters (GMI/GMIF) made use of such moves when playing.

THE MIRRORED VERSION


THE THREE VOLUMES

The original study of this E-Book is adapted from the FMJD (World Draughts Federation) Version with rules based on the Majority Capture rule where a sequence MUST capture the maximum possible number of pieces.  THIS MIRRORED VERSION IS A LOOK AT THAT STUDY WITH A VIEW TO ADAPTING IT BUT THIS TIME (BASED ON THE "FREE CHOICE CAPTURE RULE - WHERE ANY CAPTURE SEQUENCE MAY BE CHOSEN" AS PLAYED IN NIGERIA, GHANA AND SOME OTHER AFRICAN COUNTRIES).  Here, the Board Placement is that the single corner (A - Diagonal) is to the Right of both players.   THE FUNDAMENTAL LESSONS OF THE ORIGINAL STUDY ARE ESSENTIALLY THE SAME ON BOTH VERSIONS.

THE REFERENCE SECTION

For Educational Purpose and Benefit of the Mirrored Board Players, The World Championship Matches/International Tournament Games have been retained in this version and converted to the Mirrored Board Version when they conform to the rules of the Mirrored Board, to further retain the crucial lessons of the original work.

The Inclusion of these games will help the Mirrored Board Players learn from the International Grand Masters (GMI/GMIF) as if they were playing the mirrored board version.   Furthermore, We have included excepts from current games from Champions like Baba Peter (AKA Akpaka), Doubra Otuku, Dafe etc.
