Turns

Almost every action in GC requires you to spend turns.


 * When you spend a turn, your resources will alter according to your income.
 * For the RT (=Real Time) Server, the maximum amount of turns is 30 for non-Paid or 45 for Paid accounts.
 * You get 1 additional turn every 6 seconds.

WHAT IS TURNS ?

Turns are also called ticks in various other games. 1 turn or tick allows you to perform 1 task. Note that some task may take more than 1 turn. Usually most tick/turn based games requires you to:-

1. Wait for either every one to finish their turn/tick 2. Wait for the next few hours to perform another turn/tick

That is why instead of waiting, all players here are given turns in advance for the sake of convenience. If turns are not used, then it is stored until the player uses his/her turns.

X minutes per turn

That means you can perform a single task in every X amount of minutes. This also tells you how fast the galaxy is. The faster the galaxy is, the more you are required to login to play the game, and the faster the game progresses. Some players prefer a slower paced game where they can relax; others prefer to have a adrenaline packed faster paced game.

Maximum turns

Since turns are given in advance, it is only fair if there is a limit to the amount of turns stored for a player. Slower paced galaxy speed requires the player to monitor his/her empire and login less times, therefore have a larger maximum turn storage compared to faster galaxy speed servers. An important note is all the player's turns will be wasted if the turns goes over the maximum turn limit.

DIFFERENT SERVERS ?

There is turn based and real-time server. Turn base emphasis on strategy, slower paced while real-time concentrate on speed & coordination with a real-time paced game.
