I feel the need to defend Civ, it is a 10 hour game or there about so you need to devote time to it. I have rarely ever seen any one knocked out completely. Remember it is not your strength on the map that matters it is the civilisation cards that you purchase. You can always get back in to a position because the disaster cards will hurt the big guys more. If you want to speed up play but a strict time limit on commodity trading.

SPAM] Re: [irish gaming] Civilisation Board Game I am not sure if I was already tired when I began to play, but after nine straight hours playing... I do not think the owner of the game ever proposed to play again, at least not to me! There might be people that like the game, but I suppose that either they knew the rules beforehand (and therefore could play faster) or they need more than one sitting to finish a game. Like many games that let play many people, some can be out of the game after one or two hours, so they might sabotage the game just because they do not see any possible comeback into top position. Maybe I was unfortunate with the game and the players, though. Have you tried "Attack" yet? It looks more maneagable for one afternoon. --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:igaming%40yahoogroups.com> .com, Liam ó Táilliúir <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > My advice on this game is don't buy it.

I doubt it can begot in Dublin as far as I know it is out of print.
