Very nice

How long did the game last? Under the rules would thus be a big battle or more of a skirmish?

Cheers

I think this game lasted about 2 1/2 hours tops. You can adjust the amount of units fielded to suit the time and space that you have to play. Normally around 3 Brigades (with say 3-4 units per Brigade) will provide a nice couple of hours of gaming. If you go for a large multi-player battle, you can spend around 4 hours of more on the game. I've found that it works equally well at both ends of the spectrum in terms of size of the games, if that makes sense?
