Tactics - what's different?
In terms of tactics, the majority of patterns that can be found in Draughts, can also be found in Croda and Dameo, although endgame tactics differ because of the absence of one-on-one opposition. There are patterns in Dameo however, that cannot occur in the other two, or in any previous draughtsgame for that matter.
