| Re: Mornington Crescent A clever move! I suspect you're following the tactics of Denmark's Triodion.
This leaves me with no other option but to go to Arsenal. However, since tokens are active, I may perform a Napoleonic hyperbola next turn!
You may have to recalculate your chances of victory! |

| Re: Mornington Crescent Hmm, risky move, given the notorious instability of Kings Cross thanks to the Angel effect. |

| Re: Mornington Crescent I move to Piccadilly circus in anticipation of the hyperbola. I warn you under the terms of the Pertwee amendment I may reverse the polarity. |

| Re: Mornington Crescent True, you could reverse the polarity, but that would temporarily allow one of your opponents (whom it is, I will not say) to trap you with a limited implimentation of the Oliver H. Perry clause, as stipulated under the Sarai agreement. My next move still stands. |

| Re: Mornington Crescent In the meantime, I'll just quietly invoke the Thames shuffle and hop to Charing Cross. |

| Re: Mornington Crescent Ah, the Moseley Maneuver! Well played!
I have little option but to use the hyperbola, but now my next turn is forfeit due to Tyrolian lurgy.
Barbican it is, then. |

| Re: Mornington Crescent Ah the Lurgy! I scoot to Bank in order to escape its effects (only there can I invoke the Mandelson Immunity)

| Re: Mornington Crescent Looks like someone fell for a complicated triple-bluff. Post-hyperbola, I have enough longitudal spin for a National Rail manoeuvre to Kentish Town.
MC in two.

| Re: Mornington Crescent While under the effects of the lurgy, I enact the Ferrite charter, forbidding movement along the martensitic axis at all type C stations.
Furthermore, ha'pennies are now usable for extending the duration of all psalms and psalm-related tactics. |

| Re: Mornington Crescent Not the most fashionable of gambits, but undeniably effective. Bum.
While we're still at the pre-inversion stage, I may as well go for a slingshot.
Elephant & Castle.
Still MC in two.

Seven Sisters for me. |
