Some family and friends are getting together to (finally!) play a 'full' game of Killer Bunnies Q+CQ+KB. This Saturday we will be playing with all possible carrots from Quest, Conquest, and Kinder Bunnies. There will be seven players.
Has anyone here done this before? How long did it take you?

Firstly I'm jealous that sounds like a good time man. The most i ever had was six and Quest up to Green exp, and it took just under 4 hours because of a late game mystery urn and the groups inability to roll the number 12. I guess that's the great thing about KB, it could take you 2 hours if people pull carrot cards or money, then again it could take all day depending on how many people can keep bunnies alive to collect carrots. This was probably no help at all, but let us know how it goes.

We've never mixed Quest and Conquest. I like the "metals" mechanic and those cards would get very diluted in a massive game like that. On the other hand, who knows? It might add a great random element to the game! Let us know how it goes and how long it takes.

I think we're going to try to do a time lapse video of the whole thing!

its great if the people you play with really want to play the game and don't get board. snacks are necessary!
we've played a long game with all possible decks from all 3 games (plus fan cards) over a whole weekend. over night we had to lock the cats out of the room so they wouldn't destroy our table.

Insane dude, congrats on the win, now im even more jealous. Stealing the idea of the rotating platform (real name escapes me) in the middle for our next game. |

Personally, I'd like to expand on the idea of the "play mat" and create a replica play mat modified for such a Lazy Susan. I've created replicas of the Quest Deluxe Edition play mats, but I think they are all too small (but they fit in the Deluxe box...). Aquajimbo, what is the usable diameter of that Lazy Susan (such that a cardboard or paper overlay could be affixed to it)? I'll make one that fits on it! |

Davii, The Lazy Susan is about 18" in diameter (as a rough estimate). We were able to keep all of the following on it: - small draw pile (We had a reserve pile off the table/out of frame in the video) - general discard - weapon discard - bunny discard - dolla discard - Kaballa's Market(s) - Rooney's Weapons Emporium(s) - Weil's Pawn Shop (Pawns were kept on top) - Morden's Metal Exchange (Metal die kept on top, as well as metal cards sold to Morden's) - Supply cards - Water - Cabbage - Milk - Radish - Defense - all supply voucher pieces - large carrot draw pile - HORB & HERB standees (plus the rank hierarchy standee) - zodiac standee (because seriously, who can remember that stuff?) - a few spare red stands for those pesky roaming reds We kept all of the small Carrot, Zodiac, and Mysterious place cards off the table until the end of the game; no need to waste precious space! We also kept all color counters off the table, only one was used anyway. The dice were kept off of the Lazy Susan. I'm thinking about purchasing a bit larger Lazy Susan and making designated areas for all of what I described above. Maybe even use a Dremel to make pawn spots, and add a dice bowl/holster of some kind! |

You are right about snacks! We had pico de gallo + chips, funeral sammies, carrot slices (of course), and pits chips + hummus. Then after dinner we had root beer floats and coffee! Cats were offered no admittance to this game =D |

It might add a great random element to the game! Let us know how it goes and how long it takes. The metals were actually a big player in this game! There were about 5-6 metal cards that got distributed during play. There was also a card that came up that doubled the value of all gold. There were 3 gold cards out that kept getting bought low and sold high which was really fun! Some strategy had to involve acquiring carrots to get another metal dice roll in to thwart another player's grab at some serious dolla! |

This might be more tricky than I thought! I don't have many Conquest graphics, for example. Morden's isn't that interesting, but I'll see what I can do with it. |

Here is the time lapse of our 7-hour game!It made me smile when I heard the song playing in your video. I don't think a lot of people know the band Relient K, let alone that song. It's a good one. Thanks for sharing. |
