We played about 5-6 turns in 4 hours with 3 new players, beer and a supper break. All of the players were basically 'on their own' by the second turn, which is encouraging as they're a fairly detailed set of rules.Curthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03202047917371080576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5113124494092492419.post-55893935509476546302012-11-19T09:18:50.093-06:002012-11-19T09:18:50.093-06:00The game looks great!
