          Hopefully, I'm in time to start the game. I'll drop in and observe at Greenwich, stonewalling any moves southbound.

          If things don't go my way, I'm prepared to use Asahara's Gambit.

            Right, we've got enough players to start a proper game. I'll toss my hat into the ring by moving to:

            Victoria

            Gentleman, the game is on. Good play to all!
            Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

              Crafty... not explaining the rules used to lull us into a false sense of security. Cheeky bastards.

              Edgware Road, using the Circle Line Crossover, made popular by Hellfire Club and their devilishly clever innovations.

                  Hmm. I'll have to try and stop you, Imran, using Goby's Second Maneuver, which will drive me straight through Canada Water and place me in striking distance at Hyde Park Corner.

                  It was a good move, but I'm afraid that if you don't back off, I'll use Stevenson's Defense in concert with Regenstein's Brutal Reply to force you.

                    From my starting position I've quite a few options, but I think I'm going to have to block off the northern route, so I'll choose Cockfosters.

                      I haven't seen an opening like this since Corporal Jack 'Thumper' Walters was able to use a double-tunnel loopback in the 34th Lancashire Pals semi-final during one of the quieter days of the Somme in 1916.

                      I'll move to Baker Street.

                        Good thing that we didn't go with the Vanilla rules, since Bunable's 1837 variation allows people to have a reasonable chance in winning even if they're late from the first round. It gives players joining during the second round a right to start from marginally more enjoyable places than during first round, including Bow Road which I will select as my starting position.

                        Are we using the original Lord Bunable's rules or the more common revisited 1945 after-war edition? Both ban semi-lateral shunts, it's just the recently made "Newfoundland" upgrade which allows them.

                          If you knew anything about us... it's that we hate Newfoundland. If you've been there, you'd know the same.

                          Anyway, and interesting second round opening, VJ. Though I find that I am in the stronger position, due to the northern tunnel treble nisbit I am about to employ to take me to: Willesden Green
