Half Imperium

You know, when you start having vivid dreams about ordinary life in which using a shotgun is integral to going to the movies, talking with a city hall planning department, and boarding commercial airplanes; perhaps you have been playing too much Half-Life. Or perhaps you need a job.

I very much enjoyed the Twillight Imperium. The only problem with that game is it can easily become an hour to two hours longer if people are not prompt with their turn, especially with five or six players. It may be on of those games where we may need to enforce timed turns like BloodBowel online. Anyway the game really seems to keep the spirit of the previous version, but with what seem mostly beneficial changes. I would like to play it again to really see how well it plays once you know the rules.
