Editing Turn phases

A WarLight turn goes through several phases.  The two most familiar phases are the deploy phase and the attack/transfer phase as these are the two phases that players directly walk through when playing the game.  However, there are more phases for handling cards and special events.

==Details==

Every WarLight order is restricted to a single phase.  For example, army deployments can only happen during the deploy phase and attack/transfer orders can only happen during the attack/transfer phase.

The sequence of the phases is fixed.  This is why an attack can never happen before a deployment - the deploy phase happens before the attack/transfer phase.

It's possible for different types of orders to share the same phase.  For example, both the [[Order Delay Card]] and attack/transfer orders happen during the attack/transfer phase.  This means that it's possible to have attacks both before and after an [[Order Delay Card]].

Most of the time, players don't need to understand the intricate details of the phases because the [[orders list]] ensures that you can't submit things out of sequence.  However, when using many different types of cards, it can be useful to know which happen where.
