I tend to play 1000 or 1250 points, since I play pretty rarely, and when I do I want to play more than one person

I'd say 1500 points. Not as short as 1000 points, but not as long as 2000 points. It makes for a quick, fun game that allows you to play more games with other people as well.

Voted 1500. We typically play 1500 or 2k, I prefer 1500 because you can get a good solid list in without being able to resort to b.s.
I played a 1250 tournament recently which was really nice. I like the whole figuring out what to give up aspect. Forces you to play harder, but you still have options.
On occasion we have 5-8 people show up at the house, and only having two tables we down grade to 1k or lower. It's more or less a house rule that anything under 1k is foot-slogging only, with rare exception. It's the only way to keep the small ones fun imho.

2000 or 1500. I find that brings alot more tactics into the game .

Not a lot of people play 1750, but I like it alot. 2000 usually takes too long for me and 1500 doesnt feel like you can get as much as stuff as you want in an army

I voted 1500 because it's perfect I feel like the games themselves are more well rounded. But I play 1-1250 with my roommate who is learning the game, I think the lower point games are definitely better for newer players, less clutter.

750pnts. Quick, tons of different and unique lists, fun, can play like 3 games in one afternoon, usually nothing ever to overpowering from any dex at that level.

“I may ‘ne be a good shot Timer, but I don’t miss much from this close up with my hammer,” Forling continues to fire.
“All the enemies are good and far away so what the hell does that…” Timer looks up to see Forling giving him an angry stare. “Oh, yea, ok, um, good shooting.”

I usually play 850, not as small as 500, but not as long lasting as 1000 or higher.

I like 1500 the most, but I think I'd like 1750 if I played it more.
All the tournaments around here are 2k usually, but I'm just not as much of a fan as it seems to take noticeably more time than 1500.

I voted Other, because me and my friends usually play to the tournament-standard 1850 points even in casual games. I guess 1850 wasn't common back when this poll was started (sorry if this is necromancy).
