Hello.

I had the idea of compiling a document of the turn order as the rules can skip around a bit.

Basically I got tired of moving around the Rules document trying to figure out how the turns were put together each time a question came up. Basically trying to figure out when a player has priority or can play effects and when triggered effects take place and the sort. So I compiled this document in what is hopefully turn order.

Anything that helps refine this is welcome. If I missed something or got something wrong please tell me. Thanks.

EDIT: It's not proofread or done neatly yet. I wanted thoughts on it before working on it more.

EDIT 2: I noticed I said the player with initiative is the one with priority. I changed to show that the player with initiative is called the Primary Player only.

thats great Alpha. I would change the colors of the titles of every phase or step so you wont get lost and you would know in which step you currently are.

No problem. All credit will go to were credit is due. :D

Did you save the file from google or do you need me to send it to you?


EDIT: Here is an updated doc with a new style. Let me know if it's better or worse.

If it works for everyone I will need to change the Numbering system as it screwed it up when I changed the style, but I won't do all that unless it works. :P

your work is great but why dont you use different colors for each phase?
something like
Draw phase
Build phase
combat phase
recovery phase

you know, use color codes that say in which phase you are in an intuitive form.
Green = good to go
Blue = metallic, buildings
red = danger, combat
Orange = caution, who won, which character Ill leave in the field.

Are you suggesting a different color for all the wording or just the headings?

no, just the headings. if you do that it will do the contrary, having a bunch of colors will confuse you so I think with just the headings it will be fine.

What about making the back ground a pale color that indicates phase or step leaving the letters as is. I have seen this done in our office manuals. It works fine for organizing and presenting groups of information.

Just a suggestion.

There should be a "sticky" of this, or atleast the link.
Very handy to refer to with explaining some situations :)
Who's with me?

I third if I can. :P If that happen I would definitely proofread it and clean it up a bit more.


EDIT: I am out a computer right now, so I wouldn't be able to do anything until I get it fixed. :P But I will work on it either way!
