From our experience with games in the past, we knew that breaks needed to be taken! When all was said and done, it probably lasted about 7 hours! The game started with 3 players...but unfortunately, 1 of us had to leave midway through, leaving the 2 of us to improvise. It really didn't seem to affect things too much...considering the game was so large. As you'll notice, we decided to play with 2 Abbeys each, since it was such a large game. Also, you'll notice the new world in the last picture. It really didn't have much of an impact as it ended up being one of the last tiles drawn!
I ended up winning in the end...with an approximate score of about 500, to the other player's 450. I really enjoyed it. Here's some pictures I took as the game continued to grow. The last picture is after the final tile had been placed.
