I tried out 'Twilight Of The Sun-King' yesterday, playing a Charles S Grant scenario and using my ever-versatile Risk figures.

I used the original web-version of the rules, plus a few mods I found online and a couple of my own (mostly using a D10 for everything). It gave a great game, and I've ordered a copy of the proper rules from the UK.

How long did your game take to play?
One of the more attractive features of TSK is the speed of the game.

"How long did your game take to play?"

I didn't time it, but the first photo was taken 1 hour and 15 minutes before the last one :) Add in 15-20 minutes to sort out the figures and set up the game, and that makes two hours. Not sure how many moves it went to,but that's not bad for a game I'd never played before.
