I am curious how long your games are? I finally got to play a few games. First games were quick using the beginner rules. Then we use the rules in the rule book but no advanced rules yet. Took us almost 2 hours. I guess we still were going through the rules to make sure we were doing it correctly. Just used Enterprise D and the Romulan Deridex.
So once you guys know the rules how long does a game last you guys? How many ships are you using?

Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.
Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?

About a hour for 100-120 if both people know all the basic rules.

We tend to get 2 games into about 2 1/2 hrs, though that's with some inevitable dicking about and pretending that the waffle box is an extra cube.

If I have an opponent that is good with the rules we can play 100-150 in an hour. I haven't seen an OP game go to time in quite a while.

It's about an hour for 100 points. Sometimes more, sometimes less. Really depends on scenario, knowledge of rules, and fleet composition.
