Legend
The tactical powers based system that took half an hour to an hour to run a battle. Took a similar amount of time to the D&D minis game which was around at the time.
It was a rhetorical question. My point was: that is not how it played for us. We could get through combat in less than 30min or 4-5 hours (that was our longest battle I believe). I had one group that was tactically inept and rarely if ever selected powers that synergized, and it was still a blast! There is no one way to play 4e, just like there is no one way to play any other version of D&D.
