Default Re: Is this fun multiplayer?

70 turns doesnt sound bad as a common number. Yeah that might be right.

Depends more than anything on the map I think. Id say that in just about any game if a player has 50% of the map then unless someone has been strongly researching a particular nasty surprise then the game can probably be called. Variations of course, if he was spread real thin and everyone was waiting for that before surging forth. Ive seen big turnarounds in a game, sudden alliances to take down the leader, some that really dragged out to the Last province. But you can see what I mean. At 50% of the map then someone might at least broach the subject of an "end of game" call so map size I think has alot to do with it. IMHO

Personally, the game is still lots of fun for me in SP, after about a year hooked on the series (started with the first game). And, I'm having lots of fun playing MP too.
