We got 2 1/2 turns in and I was denied my turn 3 as he went first. I was annihilating him and got stuck with a draw due to time expiring before my third movement phase.
As a tournament player, I can honestly say that this is my biggest problem with the current rise in the proverbial "standard sized game" at the moment. Points have gone up to 2000 in most venues and time has been reduced from a standard 2.5 hours to between 2 and 2.25 hours at most venues. I find myself really enjoying the game less as I stress out over getting myself and my opponent thru the turns. I often groan now when I see that my opponent has an army like Orks, IG, or Nids as it often (not always) means getting only 4, or if I'm lucky, 5 turns in.
