Men capture by jumping over an opposing checker on a diagonally adjacent square to the square immediately beyond, but may do so only if this square is empty. The opposing checker is captured and removed from the board. Men can jump forward and backward.

The king captures as the man, but can cross several empty squares before jumping over an opposing checker.

When there is more than one way to jump, a player must choose a sequence of jumps which results in the capture of the greatest possible number of opposing checkers. Captured checkers are not removed from the board until all jumps made on the move are completed. A king or a man can't jump more than once over a same opposing checker(That limits sometimes the number of captures).
