Exactly. I was surprised that this one doesn't support multi capture when available.

It does. Don’t forget, only a king can go backwards.

Was curious about this, so checked:

> In American checkers, men can jump only forwards; in international draughts and Russian draughts, men can jump both forwards and backwards. [0]

a King? in checkers? we call the game "Dame" (as in Dame Judy Dench) and the piece transforms into said Dame with "the usual" super powers. Which are different from the King's. Of course. :-)

It does, not sure what you're seeing. Maybe the second jump was in the reverse direction, and thus not legal?

It forces multi capture when available.
