Attack Order

[thejeff]

I'd assume that the castings take place in either mage unit ID order or reversed mage unit ID order. That's how they'll be listed in the messages.

Battles are resolved in either forward or reversed province id order. Which leaves unresolved the question of what happens when there are two battles in the same province. With regular movement phase it seems to be by nation id order, possibly reversed. It might be by order of the first casting mage, but I doubt it.

If so, then in a given turn, all Special Monster (GR, etc) attacks should come either before or after a nation's magic phase attacks. You won't have a mix of some before and some after.

It also suggests that Special Monster attacks sent by different nations would join in one battle. Does that happen? I can't remember seeing a case either way.
