A question - I see on the map something like Victory Points, but don't see them as conditions. What does that mean?

How many turns would you say an average game is?

Victory points don't count for victory unless it's selected as a victory condition.

So in this game, the provinces with one of them will count as an 'extra temple' so to speak, they will spread your dominion if you control them.

I haven't ever finished an MP game, but if I had to guess, most games end before a 100 turns. (With larger games probably having more turns).

I get the impression that the majority of games end between 50-70 turns. Depending on size of map, of course, some may go longer than that, rare that there is a clear winner before then, unless it's a skirmish/blitz game.

50-70 is about right.

If there are crowns on the map then yep, they don't do anything apart from generate a little dominion (I think a 50% chance of a candle each turn) for whoever controls them.

You guys should post more! What's happening in the world of TucoTuco?
