Does the computer play my turn when I can't play a turn? Like I stated below, I've been unable to post for a few days. What is autoplay??

When you do not take your turn, it is equivalent of taking a turn without doing anything. At all. So if you had queued recruiting at castles, those proceed, but all your armies will just sit there.

Should we upgrade to the new 2.12 patch?

So how do I know what the time limit is before I have to take my turn? In other words, how do I avoid skipping a turn without doing anything?

Your game is probably down due to the upgrade. It will be up again soon, I'm guessing.

The server is now at 2.12

The number of minutes to the next turn is on the welcome page for all the games where you haven't taken your turn.

Well I have encountered an interesting bug.

For the Last two turns, one of the many troop summons I am doing shows up as a commander, with VL magic paths (3D 3B)... 1st was a storm demon, then an iron dragon:

Then I summon an arch devil. not only does Furcas answer the call, but I get a 2nd Arch-Devil with stats and picture identical to Furcas, named Gravesoul:

www.soapyfrog.net/dom2/twodevils.jpg

Mystified, I equip Furcas, and then go check out Gravesoul only to discover that he has "inherited" the exact same equipment, including two artifacts.

www.soapyfrog.net/dom2/gravesoul.jpg

Both devils have identical equipment, no matter what I put on them. They can be individually selected and moved, although the turn has not hosted yet so I do not know what this will do to the game. They can individually have troops assigned to them without problem.

This seems like a very strange bug! Obviously this is a long running game that was started under v2.12, perhaps that is contributing to these VL-pathed commanders I am getting for free?

Have we hit the unit limit perhaps?
