Length of WM-Games

[spiritusXmachina]

Because the topic came up a few times in another post.
I am very interested how long and how many turns most of your Warmaster Games last.

I for my part came to like games of 2500 pts lately. I am able to put in everything I like considering troops and still will not meet 3 units of cannons ie. Those games last 4-5 hours.

Recently most games played are objective driven, which means you can play almost any amount of points and still have a game done in less then 4 hours (most of the time).

Objective scenarios are more-or-less derived from FOW

We play standard 2k games; although hope to branch out to objective based games soon.  Generally the game lasts 4-5 turns and is completed within 2.5 hours.  Since my opponent switched to Undead, games have lasted longer (recently 6 turns with neither force broken) as we now both commonly have more than one turn of entirely botched orders.

we play 2k points and the games last around 2-3 hours

At the beginning we use to campaings of 500 points, to explore a little bit armies and to learn the rules. They have a little history and sometimes payed on a boardgame map, with a very very simple homemade campaing rules. We played 4 or 5 battles in afternoon.

Then we used to play 1000 pts battles and it takes us 3-5 hours. We like the reflexive way very slow game. We take pictures and make breaks to raid the fridge.

Latley we are playing the scenarios of the rule book and warmaster magazines.

I play with my brother at home, I have never played in a club or gw-store.

so that my way, only the rulebook and our interpretation, so I am enjoying a lot the effort of this community to see other interpretation of the rules, what are we doing wrong and the discussion. So thank you all

It´s depending on who I face on the battlefield.

Most of the games are finished by reaching break points of my opponents in 4th or maybe 5th turn. Seldom I have to goe 6 turns and recently some of the games and by a draw when facing our Dark Elf player.

When facing SpiritusX on the battlefield then usualy this games tend to be some kind of "Chess" ....very long lasting games of 4 to 5 hours as at the Euro GT in Bergen

That was a game! But we played full 6 turns there, did'nt we?

[Claus]

Yep, we played full 6 turns.....and I never will forget that strange dice rolls of mine in turn 3 (could not succeed to get a 25% hit quote with 40 dice)
