I remember when I first played all the enemies just immediately attacked Gale or whoever was the weakest. It was pretty brutal to keep Gale alive lol
Well for me it's taken a long time since I can only play in about 15-30 min increments since I've got a kid. However I'd say an experienced player(s) would probably take about 4-6 hours? Definitely something you could finish in one day if you started early enough. Definitely faster than some of the more heavy wargames that's for sure.
Just set up my new copy of War of the Ring. Never played before so I'll be learning as I play. On my big table I have Death in the Trenches set up but I'm almost done with that. Once that's done I'll be replacing it with Pacific War, I'm also playing that online with a group but nothing beats the physical game!
For anyone scrolling by I decided to be the change I want to see and created a new hex and counter community. If you have any interest in wargaming particularly hex and counter style swing by! https://lemmy.world/c/hexandcounter
Damn I felt that one lol. Trying to get multiple adults who all have full time jobs and kids schedules to line up is literally impossible. I have straight up given up on it
