When you jump over two pieces of your opponent's. You stand up and show them your rear. That's the "rainbow" move in checkers.
A checker is promoted to a king when it moves to the other end of the board. A king is usually distinguished from the other pieces by stacking two checkers. As per international rules, a king can travel any number of squares in a diagonal.

In Chinese Checkers, pieces can jump over other pieces, but only in a straight line. This allows players to move their pieces across the board more quickly. The jumping rules in Chinese Checkers make the game more strategic and dynamic, as players must plan their moves carefully to take advantage of the jumping ability.
This game is not Chinese checkers. This game is Chinese Chess. It is somewhat the same as International Chess. This site will show you what the pieces are and how to move them. Chinese Chess is not too hard to learn, but it is sooo much fun to play!! i love you call me lol :)

Aggravation and Chinese Checkers are both board games involving moving pieces around a board, but they differ in gameplay and rules. In Aggravation, players race their pieces from a starting position around the board to a home area, using dice rolls to determine movement, and can "aggravate" opponents by landing on their pieces. Chinese Checkers, on the other hand, involves players moving pieces across a star-shaped board and can jump over other pieces, aiming to reach the opposite side first. While Aggravation focuses on direct competition and blocking opponents, Chinese Checkers emphasizes strategic jumping and positioning.
"Men" or "stones" are what the ordinary pieces in a game of checkers are called.
If you can't move any of your pieces in checkers, you lose the game.
Draughts and checkers are two names for the same game, known as checkers in the United States and Canada, and draughts in other countries. The main differences between draughts/checkers and chess are the size of the board, the number of pieces, and the movement of the pieces. In draughts/checkers, players move their pieces diagonally on the board, while in chess, players move their pieces in various directions. These distinctions impact gameplay and strategy by requiring players to think differently about how to control the board and capture their opponent's pieces.
In Chinese checkers, a player can jump over their own or opponent's pieces in a straight line to an empty space directly beyond. Multiple jumps can be made in one turn, but each jump must be in a straight line and follow the same rules. The goal is to move all your pieces to the opposite triangle before your opponents do.
Neither do. Each player in chess has 16 pieces, which is probably what you mean, but that means there are 32 pieces on the board at the start. In checkers, each player has 12 pieces, so there are 24 pieces at the start of a game.
