I think it's time for a fresh game of Mornington Crescent, since my last thread about it is lost in the mists of antiquity.
Map here
For anyone unfamiliar with the game, the objective is to reach Mornington Crescent. The rules can be found in Harold ****inson's "Mornington Crescent Explained". It's not a complete rulebook, but it'll at least explain the common Hamilton rule-set which I'll start off with.
Okay, the wiggins are yellow and the pyramids are in double switchback mode. I play Goodge Street for a standard North Line gambit. ____________________

Ugh, this isn't even an original thread. I saw the same thing on MSPA a few days ago. ________________________________________________

Reaper starts a few a year, he's been doing it for a while now. So its original in a way.

South Wimbledon. But I invoke the King Edward rule for sniping Welshies.

I counter with Elephant&Castle under the double-five entrenchment rules and block all lateral movements for three turns as per the 1962 Hamilton corollary. ______________________________________________ -My respect can not be won, only lost. It's given freely and only grudgingly withdrawn. |

You'd like to think that, wouldn't you, but I play South Woodford, with the Earl of Marlborough's strict rules, c. 1743.

Ohh, looks like Uxbridge is up for grabs via a Grimsby cross-sprint. I'll take that one. Unlucky, guys.
In case anyone is a bit rusty, a Zone 6-er like this turns the wiggins from yellow to mauve.
MC in 26 moves. ____________________

I'm going to respond with a classic here (as seen in the match between Dalton and Huron 1946). Finchley Road, and as allowed when making a rochester gambit I'm rotating the pyramids 60 degrees.anti-clockwise. ______________________________________________ -My respect can not be won, only lost.

Doesn't the 6th edition Hamilton rules specifically say that the 1888 Marquess of Salisbury convention does not apply to games played under Hamilton rules? ______________________________________________ -My respect can not be won, only lost. It's given freely and only grudgingly withdrawn. |

Are we allowing reverse-shunting? If so: Morden.

Yes, reverse shunting is always allowed in the Hamilton rule set. I deliberately chose that rule set because of its relative simplicity.

but on second thoughts Lord GrosvenorÆs Original Metropolitan Rules This version was devised during his influential period as Minister of Tourism and the emphasis is very much on scenic routes. National monuments score double, and players must keep to zones 1 and 2 only.

This caused a quick tactical realignment as I was going to play Amos Grove, however, it seems foolish not to take the points on offer and I think we can all agree you canÆt get any more scenic than Stoke Newington.

Is it too late to burn our Tourist Tokens? I'm not sure what the turn limit is on these. Can someone check? I don't have the rulebook handy.

If we are still in the Gladsworth/Hampton phase, you may. As long as you have a Goldstern Decree, of course.

I'll do a Duke of Wessex Passant and move to Hammersmith. I cash in two bridge tokens (or is that 4 under the Monument rules?). Obviously this takes us into the Hammersmith phase with all that implies in terms of rules. ______________________________________________ -My respect can not be won, only lost.
