why did this game end before I got to play my turn?

Been here over 1.5 years and never seen this. I thought you had 24 hours.

Change in the freestyle rules - after 12 hours of a round have elapsed any player can start the new round, including the player who finished the previous round. It was brought in to prevent defacto double turns.

Haven't found the thread but several months ago it was changed so that half way in a round, the other player gets to the option to play again if they ended the round. It was meant to prevent the starter of the next round from playing 2 minutes before the end of the round and thus creating their own double-turn.

Ah ok news to me. I thought maybe the multiplied armies that you can only put down at the end of your turn fixed that....I guess not. They should then at least tell you that rather then say for have 24 hours, etc, left to play your turn. I havent played much in that past 8 months or so. Guess I need to catch up some on the rule changes. Weird though that after 60 or so games since I started playing back up that this is the first time I have seen it happen. Cheers.
