[QUOTE="Illirion, post: 3183510, member: 38310"] Based on my own group a session with 6 combats would have taken easily 10+ hours. asuming yours is a little faster I went with 8. Each combat takes a lot of time for us to set up on the battle grid and in my group I'm the only one who has a general idea on how the combat rules work. Other players don't even own a players handbook. Stuff like that makes an evening filling encounter out of something that is supposed to be a push over. 8 hours would be incredibly fast for a group like mine. I don't know your group, but if you're faster than that you're probably all reasonably experienced players and you have a very methodic aproach to a session.
