This is a fun game, but you will be playing it all day. There are shorter versions, it just depends on how you set up the map and how many players.
You start the game with one planet and a couple of scout ships...
In the final battle you'll be throwing 36 dice trying to kill the other player's fleet before he kills yours. Then you'll have the troops fight it out on the ground.
I haven't tangaed in forever, but I think I'd regret it if I didn't go for this one. Everything I read on BGG made it sound like it could go either way, but if nothing else I can trade it later for a card game or something.
Between Valentine's Day and Payday being Friday and me recently making a BAD math error in my checkbook, I'm a tad short right this moment, but I find myself being tempted.
I forget, assuming this doesn't sell out, is this due to stop being sold at 7:00pm PST Wednesday night or Thursday?
There's a number of current Tanga deals going on these days and I lose track of the schedule.
Edit: Never mind. I forgot that I could look at past deals in this category, and I see that this is due to change on Wednesday night.
Ok, so I'm worried that it'll get even less table time than my copy of TI3, but it's right up my alley, well rated, goes for a very good price and plays with 2, so I'm in.
hmm... tempted to buy - and I think I will - but if the copies arrive with a musty smell like my copies of Junta did I'm not going to be super happy. *here goes nothing*

6.97 with 68 ratings. Surprisingly better than expected.
One of my groups is trying to play as many Tom Lehmann games as possible. That makes this is an easy choice.

tempting, temping. Wish there were others nearby to share with... I'm in Eau Claire, WI
"Playing Time: 270 minutes"
No, thanks.

Thanks Tanga

So much for the trade value of this "rarity. . ."
[6] wow a game you don't own yet?:)
Actually rated high on bgg in the wargame catagory:
Wargame Rank: 453
but like a lot of war games...
Play time 270+ minutes...
I'll not really a war gamer, never mind committing a whole day to one :)

[8] Yeah not so rare is it. I'd buy all the copies but then the demand isn't really there.
wow ... 12 in one pop. They aren't holding back on this one
I wonder how far up the BGG The Hotness meter this is gonna get before tomorrow night?

I bit. I wonder if it'll ever see the table.
I have enough guilt in my life. I don't need yet another game that can't realize its full potential just because I can't find the time to play it.
[19] I say embrace the guilt! At least you'll be avoiding the regret and fear that you've passed up the one game that would totally fulfill you? :)
Nice. Another game of Galactic Exploitation just in time for...
...oh wait, never mind.
(in for one as well)
So Tanga wants the sale to last as long as the game.... I see... Hopefully tomorrow will offer something less "substantial."
Up to #17 on The Hotness!
I'm amazed Vapor's Gambit is still clinging on to the bottom of the list
[16] I guess I could be wrong....
I wish some people in my area wanted to go in on this. I'd bite for $10
Wow I definitely thought this game was about dolphins...
[14] #1!
