Description

It is the national form of the Checkers Family in Spain, where it is called "juego de damas". This is the variant of choice for all the Iberian peninsula, the North of Africa and many countries in South and Central America.
Played on an 8×8 board, it differentiates with Checkers because it has flying kings, as in International Checkers. Unpromoted men move and capture only diagonally forward.
