Default Two Apocalypse questions

Haven't bought/read the book yet, so I'm curious on these two things:

1) Is Apocalypse still 6 turns?

2) What is the recommended table size for Apocalypse?

i have no idea for ethier of your question but....my 2 cents are the following

for the table size i'd say (imho) 6 by 8, or several 4 by 8 tables put side by side.

1) you're lucky if you get 3-4 turns done within a decent day of gaming!

2) minimum is 8'x4', and that's for the smallest apoc games... you're best off just rolling a gaming mat or two out across the floor if you don't have multiple tables! apoc games are ment to be big affares... (consider that you ideally want a gaming area where things like basilisks can't fire beyond half-way diagonally when shooting indirectly!!!)

cheers!

Well the book says the length of the game is to be agreed upon by both players/teams...as for the table size??...well lets just say the last large scale game I played with my sons took up two 4x8 tables side by side...and that was at 8K...so you'll just have to answer that for yourself...how big do you wanna play?...and remember some things have a minimum range as well...like titan weaps, arty and warmachine big guns...so you don't wanna be too close
