SandWyrm here. I've refined the turn structure a bit based on the feedback I received.
First, a language change. As constantly writing 'Game Turn' or 'Player Turn' is too confusing for me, much less a reader:
Game Rounds
A game round is defined as the time it takes all of the players to complete a single turn. Thus a single ‘Round’ will always comprise 2 or more ‘Player Turns’.
Whenever the M42 rules refer to a ‘Round’, this always means a game round, and not an individual player turn.
For all effects that last for a ‘Round’, the effect will always be considered to last from the phase of the player turn in which it started until the starting phase of that player’s next turn.
Player Turns
Within each full game turn, each player will have his or her own turn during which they move and fight with their army.
Whenever the M42 rules refer to a ‘Turn’, this always means a player turn, and not a complete game round.
Now for the Sequences. I'll leave out the introductory text this time.
