what happens if you're down to your last piece because the other 3 are home, you roll both dice and you get a number that makes that last piece land one space away from home. Do I move the piece one space from home and lock myself out of the game? Or do I skip my turn and wait to go again? Or is there something else that should be done?

[@bivocgameindex]

Very good question. The "use it all or lose it" clause only applies to the bonus movement from capturing a piece or sending a piece home, and the "tops and bottoms" you get from doubles. Normal die rolls do not need to be used in their entirety to be used at all.

[@WE1RDalWANNAbe]

You kept mentioning during the video "If unable to use I lose it." Like when capturing an opponent I move 20 free spaces. Then you say if unable to use all 20 spaces I lose it. What exactly can cause you to "not be able" to move the spaces? You never explained that part. The only thing I can think of that would cause that is if there is a blockade set or if you have no pieces out of start. But you would have to have at least 1 piece out to have captured someone so why wouldn't you be able to move that 1 piece 20 spaces forward other than a blockade being set up?. Another thing that could happen I guess is that you are less than 20 spaces from home and you need exact amount to go to home. So if you are 15 spaces from home when you capture someone then you cant move the 20 spaces correct?

A BLOCKADE WOULD STOP YOU FROM MOVING ALL 20 SPACES

[@bivocgameindex]

You basically answered your own question, but yes. If your pieces are stopped by a blockade, or you already have two people on that space, or you can't make it into home exactly then yes, you could lose it. The space bonus for capturing and making it home, as well as the "tops and bottoms" bonus for doubles must be used in full or not at all.
