Hi there, I was lately given a Twilight Imperium game, and my roommate and I are trying to get people together for this weekend. It would be good to get a total of 6. The game likely takes most of the day, food and the like will be provided.

This gives a decent, although with a few mistakes, walkthrough of a game.
If you never played it before and would like to try, you are welcome to come out. It is a long game, but I am reviewing the rules and feel confident that it can move swiftly.
Email if you would like to try it out.
