Turn indicator
Turn indicator
Any way of telling what "turn (not who's turn---not turn order) it is while placing orders (while in the orders phase)?
I do not see anything indicating what turn it is while I am placing my orders for my units.
Yes, I see a turn indicator on every other screen, just not on the screen while in the orders phase (not counting the initial prompt for the turn).

1, it's there already it's the sides icon,
so it's one or the other of the top 2, so if you're one side and you're German let say and you take it in turn to start first each turn, then it will display on you're order phase also which side starts first, just need to look for it...
2, is a good idea
same as 3 and 4, no idea if there are doable either, but all comments are welcome

Does your game board look any different than mine?
Enter a game (either multi or otherwise), When you are placing your orders, where do you see a turn marker (anything indicating the current game turn)?
I do admit, I have a super small monitor...I must be blind.
I understand the indicator for the first player, but I see nothing that tells me the current game turn (the turn that I am placing orders for).
Turn initiative...but no turn indicator.

Re: Suggestions
yes the icon above is from elsewhere tbh, so no mines not any different from your's, but you are told at the start of the turn, who goes first in online play, can't show it as i'm not playing it atm, as no one is online to play with atm anyway 
still no turn deploy turn to show you either
still no turn deploy turn to show you either

Re: Suggestions
Sometimes I have to remind myself what turn it is.
Who goes first has nothing to do with it?

Re: Suggestions
but picture above has game turn and score, user name your playing against and also if you have any online matches still to play on the right with a number, all the info is there, but as you mentioned deploy, i haven't got that to show you as yet, but will edit it and screenshot one asap then upload it here, and it does show you what you wish to know, just you may have missed it, that's all

Re: Suggestions
first screen
Re: Suggestions
second screen as you deploy with who's turn on it at the bottom of the picture, as i'm the US side, and it shows the US symbol, i go first
this information is shown on every turn when you deploy, good luck and i hope the dice roll in your favour 
Re: Suggestions
and it's your turn now 
Re: Suggestions
OK, could you post a pic showing me the exact spot where it will tell me what turn it could be? According to your pic We could be on turn 1, 3, 5,7 etc. how can I tell what turn it is?
Re: Suggestions
turn 1 as it says on the main screen
my picture doesn't show turns above this one either, it shows how many units i have to deploy, seems you haven't read the manual yet or done the tutorial? 
Re: Suggestions
on the start of the turn it shows you what turn your on as well at the very start
blink and you miss it
Re: Suggestions
end turn
showing my move and how to procced
Re: Suggestions
As I said, there is no turn indicator (not talking about who's turn it is) indicating on what game turn we are placing orders for while in the Orders phase.
Re: Suggestions
next
Re: Suggestions
that will come, atm we are on turn one, when we get or if we get to turn 2, it will say turn 2Waltero wrote:As I said, there is no turn indicator (not talking about who's turn it is) indicating on what game turn we are placing orders for while in the Orders phase.
but at any time if you look at the top right corner, it displays a turn indicator which atm says 1 of 6, which means turn 1 of a 6 turn game the minus 1 triangle was there because the shot was partially blocked so also had a -1 added to roll, but i used bonus ammo and gave it a +1 to roll

I think It would be a good idea to place a 'turn' indicator while in the orders phase. I often times need a reminder (If I walk away from the game) of what turn it is.

Re: Suggestions
against me really isn't fair, as i've got 200+ hours in or more and 30+ online wins, and game completed 3 times already, but can be beaten, same as anyone can, if the dice rolls in your favour enough times 
to win, not only do you need to be lucky, but you also need to know the units, and bonuses and minus of the terrain, then make the best judgement call on placement and when to and when not to shoot, it's still a gamble, so there's no right and wrong way either, but over time some work better while others don't, it's that simple, learn by playing, and over time the odd's will be easier to understand, but there's always the day when the dice aren't on your side, then it's time to walk away as in real life and come back when your feeling luckier
