All true.

I also do believe that the first 10 turns really could be done in a day, for all 6 games.

I rarely take more than 10-15 minutes for the first few turns. Even turn7-10... maybe 30. 30x6 = 3 hours.

So the first 10 turns = 10 days, 2nd = 20 days. 3rd = 30 days, 4th= 40 days, exciting action packed conclusion = 50 days.

150 days... 5 months.. I'm guessing.

But, whats more I figure that in some of the games, you are going to be getting trashed, just fighting to save 1 vp... so those turns will be short.

And lastly no diplomacy, no trading, no contact. No discussion. Its the honor system, but that ought to cut down game lengths as well.

But, lets hear what people say!
