Placing your checkers
Both you and your opponent have a homebase, a quarter on the game board that eventually, all your checkers must be there.
Your homebase corner(the side of homebase without another quarter in it) is your first point (indicated by a colored triangle), the triangle next to him is your second point and so one.
Your 24th point is the corner of the opponent's homebase (the distant corner).
Before you start playing, you need to place five checkers on your 6th point, three on you 8th's, five on your 13th' and two on your 24th.
