multiplied armies???

why do the armies get multiplied fpr rounds missed? i think this isn't agood idea. in one of my games, the guy missed 2 turns in a row, then decided to take a turn and gets his armies multiplied for 3 rounds!?!? that's a bunch of crap. if you miss a turn why should you get the armies you missed out on??? it's your own fault you missed a turn. those armies he recieved may have changed the outcome of the game.
