Just finished my first full play of Twilight Imperium with my group
A year ago, I would have said no to a game that long, but after playing at my friend Ben's place in Denver last month, I got hooked on the big stories it makes. We played for 8 hours straight today and nobody got mad, we were all just into the space politics. What's another long game that's worth the time commitment?

My group loves Eclipse for that.

Yeah the "loves Eclipse for that" part is so real. I was totally against it for a long time but my last group showed me how good it can be.

Has anyone else tried Diplomacy while you're waiting for the next big game night? It's way shorter than TI (like 6 hours instead of 12) but the backstabbing and alliances are just as intense. My group did it as a warmup once and it got everyone so fired up for the main event. The map is just Europe so it feels simpler at first but then someone betrays you over Italy and you're done for. It's a good palate cleanser too, since you can play it on a weeknight without blocking a whole Saturday.
