I'll know in a couple months. Our sessions are once a month and run 8-10 hours of play-time (10-12 hours total). We're 95% done with Ch9. About to start the final chapter. I give it 1-2 sessions to finish. We started in June 2023. So... 160ish hours from start to finish for Secrets of the Ancients? - ThreadSky

Cheers, that's really helpful. Still got Murder At Arcturus to play through first 👍

Is that *just* the Secrets of the Ancients, or have you also included Mysteries and Wrath?

Just Secrets of the Ancients
We'd already made characters specifically for SotA and played a 'get to know them adventure' before Mysteries even released.
I explain it further in my SotA Campaign Diary intro vid https://youtu.be/NriuGyS94aY

Thanks! I watched the beginning of your SoTA video and dropped out quickly when the info started to get spoilery. I may get chance to play it (🤞) but more likely if no one else wants to run it, I'll have a go (after I finish running Pirates of Drinax and Deepnight Revelation, so years from now!)

Think of the Ancients saga like Star Wars. We had ep 4-6 for years and were happy (Secrets). Then eps 1-3 released (Mysteries). Later, eps 6-9 (Wrath).
One does not need to watch the Prequels to enjoy the far superior Original Trilogy.
Secrets of the Ancients doesn't need or benefit from a prequel
