"Failed to connect to server"
I am getting this when I attempt to send turns about half of the time in FoG2, Pike and Shot, and Sengoku Jidai. I can join my games and move around just fine, this just happens when I attempt to end the turn. It fails once, then I get fog of war on every tile except the tiles my units are standing on, and fails every other attempt to send.
Is this just happening to me, or are there server troubles right now?

I managed to connect to the server, but I failed to send my turn for three games today, i.e. 6 hours ago until now. I succeeded to submit my turn for other four or five games.
I don't know whether it is related to the server issue.

I am having similar problems since yesterday (twice today).
I get the 'waiting message' for 20 seconds then the message that the games had failed to upload. On trying to upload a second time, on both occasions, the enemy troops disappear from the map and I immediately get the failed message again and am obliged to cancel.
Oddly, it transpires that the games did upload to the server but I still get the unpleasant message that my actions have been recorded. I understand the reason for this feature but in the circumstances it is mildly irritating.

We are indeed having issues with forum speed that we are looking into at the moment. If you find you are also having problems with the updater's speed, please try downloading the update from the
Members Section. Download there is also maybe a bit slower than usual but seems to be working fine otherwise.

I had the same problem just few minutes ago with my turn in a multiplayer match.

Server seems to be back up to speed now.

I had problems most of last night getting turns to upload to the server. Over the last few days, and still today, I'm getting really long responses from this forum. About a minute for every request, it's really painful.

There have been sporadic DDOS attacks on the server over the last week or so. We are working to try and mitigate the problem. Sorry for the hassles.
Cheers

Multiple issues
1. Forum is really slow - 20-30s to load a screen or make a post.
2. Multiple fails on the server when sending turns
The reasons have been mentioned in the thread - just confirming.
