I finally played TI4. It took 11 hours. I'd do it again tomorrow.

This past Saturday we got 5 people together for TI4. Started at 10am. “Finished” at 9pm. Took a pizza break around 3.

I played Jol-Nar and got stomped militarily but snuck out a win on points because everyone forgot about my secret objectives.

My back hurts. My brain is fried. I’m already texting the group about the next one.

Welcome to the club. By game 3 you can get it down to 6-7 hours. Which is still insane.

The political phase is where TI4 transcends being a board game and becomes a life experience.

11 hours including setup/teardown or just play time? Setup alone takes me 45 minutes.

I've played it four times. Each time I say 'never again.' Each time I start planning the next game on the drive home.

Nobody tell him about the Prophecy of Kings expansion.

Too late. Already ordered it.
