Can you see if it's your last or second to last turn?

Post by Cos- »

When someone triggers the end, you may have one more move (if they were after you in the current round of turns) or two more (if they were before you in the current round of turns). Does the game tell you whether this is your final turn or your second-to-last turn? If you're playing real time it's probably clearer, as long as you remember to check who went first, but I never play real time. In a turn based game, it becomes my turn and I click into the table and see the warning that someone has triggered the end game. Is the only way I can find out if this is my last turn, to read through the game log and reference the icons in the player boxes to see who's first and puzzle it out that way? That's tedious and it's also easy to make a mistake. Or is there some direct indicator in the UI, that I haven't noticed?

There's a first player token next to the player who went first at the top of the screen.

Sure there is, although it's hard to see because there's a lot of visual noise. But that's exactly what I was talking about in my comment, where I wrote "read through the game log and reference the icons in the player boxes to see who's first and puzzle it out that way?" - that _sucks_. It takes extra thinking and logic, and it's easy to mistakenly get it wrong. It's not actually a way to see if it's your last or second to last turn, it's a way to puzzle it out from subtle clues and working through the rules in your head, as a way to work around NOT being able to see if it's your last or second to last turn.

Since nobody else has responded, I'm getting the sense that the answer here is no, there isn't a away to see that.
