Hi Hendo! Glad you asked...
> 1. Where do you guys play?
It varies, but the last handful of games have been at Jonathan's (Arllington).
> 2. About how long is a game?
That varies too...anywhere from 5 hours to way more than 5 hours. That
includes setup time which usually takes an hour or so. It also includes
waiting around for me to show up :)

Not hard at all...watching a game is usually a good place to start and then
team up with an experienced player.

Totally.

Hmm...it's never been a problem. Buildings and what not are easily
identifyable and all the figs usually are too. But if there is some concern
about the figs, the handy stick-a-piece-of-paper-in-the-torso trick usually
works.

I'd love to see them. If you can make it, that'd be great!
