Other destinations: London Euston also offers services to a range of other locations, including Northampton, Milton Keynes, Coventry, Crewe, and Watford Junction, among others. These routes provide connections to towns and cities in the Midlands and southern England. Where to eat near London Euston I live in Tennessee now, but I did not always. I used to live in Illinois. I have never been to London, nor any part of the United Kingdom. I was hoping that I would still be able to enjoy a game based on the Underground metro that runs beneath the city of London. Sure, I have toured Europe previously, and it was amazing. My wife has been to Europe as well, though separately from my trip. We both would love to make a trip, and I believe we will soon. Will we ride the tube? Yes. Will we visit one or more of the Doctor Who Experiences? ABSOLUTELY. Until then, I will pretend to redesign the Underground lines in this game. Sometimes all by myself.

The new station, designed by architect Richard Seifert, featured a more functionalist and Brutalist architectural style. The redevelopment aimed to increase capacity and improve facilities for passengers. Your actions are simple: starting from your current pencil color station, and viewing the action’s current card shape (circle, square, triangle, or pentagon, aligning with the station shapes on each player’s sheet), players must draw a single line along the gray pre-printed lines from one shape to one matching the currently flipped card. On future cards, you’ll only be able to draw lines from one of the two ends of your subway line. If you can’t or don’t want to draw a line, you could pass, but your score will likely take a hit as a result.

Dan B. : I’ve played a lot on BGA and am still enjoying the game. It manages to have quite a bit of interesting variability despite only having one layout and also being fairly simple compared to many other recent X-and-writes: it doesn’t have multiple areas to play in, cascading bonuses, or really anything except the objectives and pencil powers, neither of which is complicated. After you have added your first section to an Underground line, all future sections can be added to either end of the Underground line. The chosen end of the Underground line must connect to a station matching the symbol on the latest card. There is one exception to this, the Railroad Switch (see below). For the second Station card a triangle card was drawn. For their next line the player will have to connect to a triangle station. The pencil in the above photos show the stations that this player could connect to the purple Departure station. There are no options to connect to a triangle station from the square station they previously connected to. The player decided to connect the top station to the northwest triangle station. You will play four rounds in Next Station London. In each round all of the players will be drawing one of their four Underground lines. Each round consists of four different phases.

Score as many points as you can by optimizing the routes of 4 Underground lines through 13 districts on your map of London After you have completed scoring the last line you created, the current round is almost over. You need to complete some cleanup before you start the next round. If the last round was the fourth round, the game will end. London to Glasgow/Edinburgh: Euston station provides direct services to both Glasgow Central station and Edinburgh Waverley station in Scotland. These routes offer connections to various destinations in Scotland, including cities such as Stirling, Dundee, and Aberdeen. The Railroad Switch card makes things interesting, as long as it arrives after the second flipped card. But there’s a 9% chance that it will show up as your first draw, which means it gets discarded. I have found that leads to an interesting problem when trying for high scores—the scores seem like they will be higher if you can use the exchange card. The Railroad Switch card and the two “Joker” cards (which give players the right to use any of the four station symbols) are easily the most important ones in the game to provide flexibility, so if they show up, scoring bonanzas may occur.

Final thoughts on Next Station – London

You can use the Pencil Power assigned to your current color once. You do not have to use the power if you don’t want to. If you use the card, flip it face down to show that it has been used in the current round.

Weeks before the pandemic hit, I was plotting a course to visit the UK with London as a central destination. And while I’ve not had the opportunity to revisit these plans, the idea of getting out into the world and traveling internationally again has continued to enter my mind.

Hornchurch – Introduction | British History Online". British-history.ac.uk. 19 August 1938 . Retrieved 27 April 2010. Each player starts the game with a sheet and a pencil. The sheet shows a portion of the London underground system, broken up into a 3×3 grid. In each corner, there is also a super small 1×1 region that is separate from the larger corner region. There are stations scattered around the board: circles, triangles, squares and pentagons. The game will be played over 4 rounds, and in each round, players will only draw the specific line that matches the pencil in their hands. At any point during the round you can circle one of the stations that you connected to your current line. This station will count as two stations when determining which district had the most connected stations. Next Station London Solo Mode You will now trade pencil colours. Pass your pencil to the left. Then play the new round with the new colour. London still eludes me, though through no fault of this game. We’ve enjoyed our time puzzling out different routes and cursing a card that prevents us from taking a turn. Scoring in Next Station London is tight at both two and three players and the solo challenge has been a treat. I have no idea how I’m going to get the best point threshold listed in the rulebook. But that’s where my final thoughts lead me on this journey down these new rail lines: I’m game to continue to try to beat my previous scores and see if I can truly optimize my interchange stations despite the random card draws. That’s enough of an endorsement for anyone looking for a new distraction while not completely forgetting about the desire to explore other areas of the board game world.
