====Man==== An uncrowned piece (''man'') moves one step ahead and captures an adjacent opponent's piece by jumping over it and landing on the next square. Multiple enemy pieces can be captured in a single turn provided this is done by successive jumps made by a single piece; the jumps do not need to be on the same diagonal direction and may "zigzag" (change direction). In American checkers and [[Spanish draughts]], men can jump only forwards; in [[international draughts]] and [[Russian draughts]], men can jump both forwards and backwards.
