This is one for those of you who game in your own homes.
We've had a partial easing of restrictions & two friends are allowed to visit from this weekend; provided you keep your distance. Obviously, I quickly arranged for Dave & Damien to come over on Saturday for an ECW game.
And, equally obviously, it being Friday afternoon, I've set up the game, taking about an hour. This means moving my car out of the garage, setting up the table tennis table & putting the mats over it, bringing out the scenery and troops (Covenanters & Montrose's army) from the cupboards in the garage &, as per pre-arrangement, putting everything on the table.
So how long does it take you? Not the planning stages but just the mechanical tasks leading up to throwing the first dice?
This took me, as I wrote, an hour. Bigger games than this medium one might take up to half an hour more.

It's been a while so time well spent.
