[Train B continued. Lumme, Simon said it'd only ever be one side long. Oops...]     

     11) Special powers.
        a) The Tank. A Tank can be purchased for 2000 pounds. It has the 
     ability to destroy any buildings in the square it lands on. This is 
     automatic unless specified otherwise. You will still have to pay the 
     normal site rent in 'parking charges'.
     
        b) The Anti-Tank gun. 1000 pounds. Allows the destruction of an 
     attacking tank. If the tank does not exercise it's option to destroy 
     the buildings, it cannot in return be destroyed by the AT-Gun. If the 
     AT-Gun destroys the Tank, the buidlings are still destroyed.
     
        c) The helicopter. 2000 pounds. Allows movement around the board 
     without 'landing' on a square, thus avoiding rent. Ignores AT-Guns and 
     Tanks.
     
        d) The Anti-Aircraft Gun. 1500 pounds. The AA-Gun has only one 
     purpose, to shoot down helicopters. If a helicopter is shot down, the 
     player owning it must pay rent for that square.
     
        e) The Earthquake. One of the Chance cards (Make General repairs on 
     all of your houses. Houses 40 pounds, hotels 125 pounds) is removed 
     and replaced with an earthquake card. All buildings belonging to any 
     player, are destroyed.
     
        f) The Tunnel. 2 adjacent stations can be linked together as 
     follows: Kings cross to Marylebone 500 pounds, Marylebone to Fenchurch 
     street 1000 pounds, Fenchurch street to Liverpool street 1500 pounds, 
     Liverpool street to Kings X, 2000 pounds. This can be done only if you 
     own both stations. If you finish your move on the first one, you may 
     move to the next one for your next move. This may only be done if your 
     last move was not also a train ride. If you go from liverpool street 
     to Kings cross, you do not pass GO.
     
     12) Finally, remember this is meant to be a fun game, not totally serious.
     
     Well, that's the game. Please send me any comments. I can be got on

     Well, that's all from issue B of TRAIN, your favourite sub-sub-zine.
     
     Until next time Stretchy manages to produce an issue...bye bye.

        Chris here again, just to round off the zine: the main thing wrong with
my subzine at the moment in my eyes is that there are too few people playing games
in it. I'll sort this out after my finals. I've got lots of games to try, including
one I playtested at DipSoc last night, only for it to turn into a horrible mess
half-way through turn one. Still, this is what playtests are for.
        I've been amazingly well for the last 5 weeks, which is a very pleasant
surprise. Before that I was badly plagued with 4 ulcers on my lips and gums in the
space of three weeks (one so far out of the way I went to a dentist to check that
it wasn't anything worse). Not nice. However, not as not-nice as the news that my
final Maths exams clash with RamsdenCon, so I won't be able to go. AAARRRGGGHHH!
Now that DOES irritate me.
        Thanks for all your kind letters - they are much appreciated. I'm going to
go sort-of-games-only for the next 2 or 3 issues so I can concentrate on Maths; I
say sort-of as there are reprints and already-written articles I'm going to use too.
But don't expect miracles, OK?
        Take care, everyone. Differential equations beckon...  Chris
