can a single jump over a double in checkers/draughts
in draughts can a single take down a double
This is what someone said: No. For that to happen in the previous move the king put himself at check, in an adjacent square to the enemy king's square, which is an illegal move. But I say: Yes. the king can capture another king ONLY if the king is protected like a white queen protects a white king.
Yes, a single can jump a double in a game of draughts. As long as the jump would be allowed with another single piece, it is also allowed with a double.
what a stupid question you capture a king!
Yes. Any checker can jump over another one that is a single space diagonally away. If the opponent leaves a King open to capture like that, go for it.
Draughts is another name for checkers.
The game draughts is also known as checkers.
The King is not allowed to be in check. If a piece is on a square where if the King were there, the King would in check, the King isn't allowed to capture it.
This is an example of an impossible scenario in chess. You can never capture a king; you can only checkmate it.
