APRIL 2000
Cosmic Encounter Online
Link of the Week, 27th April to 3rd May 2000
Cosmic Encounter may be the most fondly remembered new board
game of the 1970s; a simple set of rules decides results
of battles for alien solar systems, but the intrigue comes
from the fact that each player has the ability to break the
rules in a different way. This site matches up players online
four at a time at no cost so they can bribe, bluff and break
rules against one another in real time.
Schellsburg Cribbage Forum
Link of the Week, 20th to 26th April 2000
Michael Schell has created a comprehensive site that helps explain the
intricacies of the game of Cribbage. We were especially impressed by his
explanations of discarding techniques. Our Deputy Webmaster has played more than
500 games of Cribbage in the last year, and hopes to compete at the Olympiad,
yet he learned something about discarding techniques from reading Michael's pages.
There's a lot of other good information to be found here. Whether you are a beginner,
or whether you are an expert, we strongly recommend this set of pages to you.
Reijer Grimbergen's Shogi page
Link of the Week, 13th to 19th April 2000
News of the seven highest profile tournaments, professional games with
comments, a basic Shogi vocabulary, profiles and pictures of all Shogi's
professionals, Shogi links and adresses and excellent original articles.
American Checkers Federation
Link of the Week, 6th to 12th April 2000
Excellent, comprehensive site about 8x8 checkers, known as
draughts in the UK: vast archives of historical information
about the game and its top players, its rules (for both the
kitchen-table and professional versions of the game) and a
considerable amount of theory about the mind sport, its most
famous positions and endgame combinations.
European Poker Players' Association
Link of the Week, 30th March to 5th April 2000
Our favourite poker site with comprehensive information

players in Europe. Other features include information on

title; also a selection of top-quality articles from
