How long do you play for?

Usually I get onemoreturnitus whilst playing....so I never really no how long I'm on for.

1-2 hours of gaming a day, and probably another 1 hour on the internet

I've got to say, this christmas has been great. Extra long holiday due to my accident just before christmas, and Oh Boy ! have I made the most of it...
Two weeks with nothing but beer, fags, food, BI, the occasional annoying mating call from the wife and a few pub calls.
Yup, I've played the game to death but I've still only been bothered to finish one campaign. Still love it though, flaws and all.

When I start there´s no telling when I´ll stop. If things go well for me, I can go on forever.But I tend to get easily frustrated and that can limit my time. MTW, hoever, is in my opinion an even greater time thief than Rome, maybe because of the boardgame style of the strategic map. It´s so damn easy to push some pieces about and then hit End Turn to see what happens...and before you know it you have three or four battles going on that need solving

Well I usually play when I dont have much on, so it depends alot on how dull my life is :) Can be half and hour can be 4 hours.

About an hour at a time anymore. This means a campaign game can take a longggg time.

I was much more prone to fall into a marathon session in Medieval: Total War. Frankly, this is becausse R:TW is a much more management-intensive game, especially with it's strategy map system. You're not just moving an army to a province. You're picking a spot on a river crossing or on the right hillside.

When I was single and only seeing my girl on weekends (we live in different cities) I can go up to 12 hours on my off day nights (those time on MTW).

Nowadays on my off day / leave I sometimes play the whole day sin morning until my wife comes home (if she's working) though not all the time facing the monitor. Sometimes when I'm defending and AI stupid enough to attack me on the bridge , I just set up my army , run the game and go have lunch or whatever. After half an hour or so , I come back to the pc and see message 'do you continue' or 'end the game as all the enemies are routing.. Eheh..

Cheers...
