Depends on the players, of course.
If two people are familiar with the rules and don't hesitate over every
decision, then ~4 hours.
We ran just such a game at ConQuest last weekend, with ~10 NEW players.
The
game went about six hours, with a lot of thought going into tactics and
side-huddles from both teams.
By far the biggest time-sink in playing Starship is how long you agonize
over
your actions.
