Bring back the mighty Uckers.. Got posted to help the REME keep their flying landrovers in the air and to my suprise found an Uckers board in the crew room. Tried in vein to get the Pongos into the game but all they wanted to do was throw the pieces around the crew room... funny old thing....

If they be uncomely their lives are gay with fine frolic and delicate revelry!!!!!!!Off Topic

So what did we all use as uckers pieces then?

Sawn off broom handles appeared to be a favourite but I also remember dummy ERU carts making an appearance as well.

Fired 201 cartridges with the centres punched out (ex regs etc etc blah blah)

I think we could get some mileage out of it, however I wouldn't know where to start. I have made a couple of T bar uckers boards in my time but as for a online gameDT_Xtremez_42:

 

[MontyPlumbs]

It would almost certainly have to be a flash type game, and what I know about programming flash you could fit on a postage stamp!

I haven't tried but have you looked to see if there are any (spit) ludo games on the net you can ripoff, and then take it from there.

 

[monobrow]

Never made anything in flash, and usually it's times like these that make me learn?!?!?!? DT_Xtremez_09:

 

[FOMz]

Just a tad of necro-posting here....

But has anyone ever seen an on-line version of it?

 

[MontyPlumbs]

These people have been promising it for years:
