Honestly? Quite a while. I've only played to the lesser victories, and 
*that* typically takes a couple of hours. My suspicion is that, until 
you're good at it, it's probably a long time to set up one of the 
greaters -- 5-10 hours wouldn't astonish me, given how much setup is 
needed to accomplish it.

That said, if anyone's played to a greater victory, they'll have a more 
informed opinion. Peter, have you done this?
