Re: managing empires
I tend to do 30 min or less in turns myself. But I have a friend who was spending 4-6 hours a day on one turn. I was stunned that anyone could put so much time in. So I took a second look on how I did things and in one turn I concentrated on maxmizing one factor and played the turn. It took me close to 2 hours. Also I don't do too many simulations. This fellow was trying to beat the Talisman and getting games to the point where he was running fleet battles from both sides. Going all out and using enemy ship designs. It is hard being an Admiral and Emperor and Researcher and pushing all three roles to perfection.
However if you met this fellow in a game you would know it.
