Camelot Derby
Rules: Circus Giganticus, Saturday, 10 AM, 3 Hours,
Players Descr: In the dark days after the fall of the
Roman Empire, civilization crumbled, knowledge
was forgotten, and Man’s light went dim. In these
Dark Ages, a spark of hope glimmered – Camelot.
Harkening back to the greatness of Rome, the
Knights of Camelot strove to rekindle certain ideals
– Order, Honor, Democracy – and RACES. The venues of Rome hosted giant spectacles. Their names
are still today synonymous with enormity – the Coliseum, the Circus Maximus, and greatest of all –
CIRCUS GIGANTICUS. The knights of Camelot
sought to capture a bit of that former glory, to create
a contest which would separate the men from the
boys, the fast from the slow, and – of course – the
heroes from the zeros. Thus was born – CAMELOT
DERBY. In the game CAMELOT DERBY, players
control brave LEGO knights and their faithful LEGO
steeds as they vie to be named PREUX, the first to
circle the LIST 3 times. The LIST is a giant race
course constructed entirely of LEGOs. Many begin
this race; few survive to the finish! GM Matthew
Wendling,
