Haha ... looking at my restart turn, I suppose it's thematic that Yomi be surrounded by barren mountains in the beginning =).

Dawnstrike....
So, every mid-summer turn, VP's are accumulated. This is going to be a fairly quick game? Any theories on the turn count at game's end? My guess is 48 turns if the game is starting at summer, or 54 turns if the game starts in the winter.
Thoughts?

It starts in spring... I think VPs tick over in four months (between turns 4 and 5)! Or maybe even a month earlier, I forget... Turn 52 is my guess, which puts me in idealogical agreement with YellowCactus...

I was sort of thinking the game would end around Turn 60 or 72. I think it will be hard for a player to get 3 VP provinces early in the game, but we shall see. My hope is that the game ends while it is still fun and not a mega turn chore.

I definitly read the rules wrong. I thought you need 13 from 18 VP to win. Maybe because i had in mind that dominions is an epic game and my mind clarified the accumulated clause in a wrong way.

So the game lasts only for 3-4 years.

However i planned for a longer game and my strategy isn't fast...
