I know war is unfair but this is taking the .......

How does a player manage to take a turn in the middle of my turn?
Then once i've finished, manage to get another turn each time recieving
troops?
how is this fair?
Game 7225944

2010-07-06 09:30:04 - macmingus received 2 troops for holding The Agean
i begin my turn

2010-07-06 09:33:05 - Colemanus received 3 troops for holding Sterea Ellada
they begin thier turn even though I havent ended mine

2010-07-06 09:35:57 - macmingus ended the turn and got spoils
I end my turn

2010-07-06 09:46:19 - Colemanus received 3 troops for holding Sterea Ellada
they get another turn

how is it that they get an extra turn during my turn
I'm new here I admit but on the face of it
thats seems completely rigged.
And if this is in the wrong section of the
forum I apologise but I'd still appreciate an
answer befor I fork out any cash for premium
membership.

it's a freestyle game. allows players to take their turn any time in the round.

if you finish the round by taking the last turn, you're not able to take your turn to start the round
look to play sequential games if you want players to take turn in order

When joining the game check if it says "Sequential" or " Freestyle". You may wish to avoid Freestyle untill you get the hang of the game/site better (and even then, many players avoid freestyle like the plague altogether )

LOL. with posts like these you made me a friend...Dont let an early bout of defeats turn you off. Keep at it and you will get better,. Oh and do not play freestyle untill you have played a lot more games. freestyle is wierd and can be fun, but there are a lot of people with no life that are like a killer whale out there.

I really feel freestyle games are great if you are able to check the site often because there is so much tactical advantage to gain by being able to take your turn at the most strategic time. But if you don't have that luxury, you're better off avoiding freestyle as people exploit the hell out of it.

[elfish_lad]

Do not play freestyle...

Oh yes. I agree Sir S! Well said!!!

To the OP, hang in there mate. Keep asking questions when you have them. This is a great site and a superb game! Welcome.
