Chinese Checkers Beginner First-Plan Record: Red D5xE6 Center Route

Main mistake: leaving the rear camp without a return bridge for the group

when checking the reply, make the cue do work, treat Red D5xE6 as the page's working move: map it to route ladder from B3 through E6 with a center block at G9, use Blue L15xJ12 as the reply test, complete the short beginner record job by asking how to say the first plan aloud, then mark the exact reply that proves the unsafe choice, and then pick a related record that changes one reading task without changing the game family.

while the notation is fresh, check the rule before style, say 1. Red B3-D5 | Blue A1-L15, find route ladder from B3 through E6 with a center block at G9, and ask whether the next reply leaves single steps, chained jumps, landing points, and group-route efficiency intact. The beginner job is to name one safe plan and one rejected move before following the rest of the line. The page is useful only if that first inspection changes how this race and jump strategy first plan: center route record is read.

Reader jobBeginner record note

when checking the reply, make the cue do work, after this first plan: center route record, write one sentence naming 1. Red B3-D5 | Blue A1-L15; 2. Red D5xE6 | Blue L15xJ12, route ladder from B3 through E6 with a center block at G9, and leaving the rear camp without a return bridge for the group. Red D5xE6 is worth keeping only if the reply test around Blue L15xJ12 still works.

  1. 1Find the cue

    at the first branch, keep the comparison same-game, treat 1. Red B3-D5 | Blue A1-L15 as a coordinate key: it should make route ladder from B3 through E6 with a center block at G9 easy to point at and easy to remember.

  2. 2Translate the rule

    at the first branch, keep the comparison same-game, before choosing a plan, say which part of single steps, chained jumps, landing points, and group-route efficiency controls the position. That rule cue is the page's anchor.

  3. 3Make the answer local

    at the first branch, keep the comparison same-game, the third pass should find the unsafe habit, not merely repeat the notation, so name where leaving the rear camp without a return bridge for the group first appears.

  4. 4Choose the next record

    at the first branch, keep the comparison same-game, close the pass by naming the next same-game record that would make single steps, chained jumps, landing points, and group-route efficiency easier to test in a new example.

Record goalBeginner record note

The screen record task works on visible goals, obvious mistakes, and a record line that can be replayed without a live board. Board cue: route ladder from B3 through E6 with a center block at G9. Level job: the record note slows down at the first legal-choice moment so a new reader can connect the rule, the board cue, and the reason for the move. In Chinese Checkers, practice this habit: build routes that keep the group moving instead of sending one piece alone. The page keeps the record note narrow enough that the notation, cue, and mistake can be checked together. Replay evidence: the Chinese Checkers route and jump notation line begins move one Red B3-D5 | Blue A1-L15; move two Red D5xE6 | Blue L15xJ12; inspect Red D5xE6.

Legal testa two-hop bridge, an exit lane, and a landing point reserved for

A piece can usually step to an adjacent empty point or hop over an adjacent occupied point into the empty point beyond. Chained jumps matter because one move can cross several prepared landing points.

Trap to watchleaving the rear camp without a return bridge for the group
