New Nah. I beat the stripped-down 36-station version online
...in 6 moves, without knowing a single rule.

Not my kind of game...it's why I hate de_dust. Newbie map. :D
---------------------------------
A stupid despot may constrain his slaves with iron chains; but a true politician binds them even more strongly by the chain of their own ideas;...despair and time eat away the bonds of iron and steel, but they are powerless against the habitual union of ideas, they can only tighten it still more; and on the soft fibres of the brain is founded the unshakable base of the soundest of Empires."

Jacques Servan, 1767

New Not bad.
But then, with only 36 stations, there's no real need for rules - one can simply employ the Liebnitz-Featherstonehaugh Relativistic Stochasicity Technique and you'll win every time.

Via lateral arabesque from the wings.

I invoke the Least Squares Hilbert Space-Inflexibility Conjecture \ufffd 42 - now well on the way to Marylebone's Boner, for ultimate satisfiction.

Can Shepherd's Bush be impregnable?
