I would also be interested in any of the games mentioned. I also own Warrior Knights & Kings and Things, but they are probably buried deep in my cupboard. I would be willing to play your copies, Neil.
I have played Kingmaker, Totopoly & Escape from Colditz. I love all of those. Also I haven't played Diplomacy or Hare & Tortoise for a while.
And I must get around to playing Imperial again.

I have Warrior Knights and Kings and Things. I'd play either if others were interested.
