A cabin in the wild with my 4 gaming buds, all leaving kids and wives behind to create galactic empires. We played from 1:30pm to 1:30am, with a 2-hour break at 6 to grill steaks and salmon. We were all pretty stoned by the end when the magic happened: the player with the lowest total score (3) got a plot-twisting 7 points in one turn thanks to his Imperial II card, winning the game in spectacular fashion. It was epic. The game is really bloated but it's so much fun. We feel that we now have a better sense of what a good long-term strategy is, so we might make it an annual thing. Time flew by and we had a blast! The 90 minute drive back, all packed in a car, we spent the entire time discussing the rules and what works and doesn't. Thanks Twilight Imperium!
