This particular run-through took a bit over 3 hours (including setup, introduction, briefing brand-new players, etc.); I think 6pm to 9:10 pm within a 6-10pm time slot. <br /><br />Previously I'd been running the game in about 2 hours, so I honestly went in intending to run it twice, swapping player sides each run. But I'd also about doubled the monster forces for balance purposes, so it went longer. Obvious now, but it surprised me at the time.Deltahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00705402326320853684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2170237526012357403.post-36673954403775723852011-02-15T00:22:21.565-05:002011-02-15T00:22:21.565-05:00Absolutely fantastic model...where can I buy one? ...Absolutely fantastic model...where can I buy one? <br /><br />Interested in the Book of War.
