Yes, this is the turn sequence. The first turn processed by the players has no playback as there is nothing to watch, but starting with turn 2, the turns and combat results from the previous turns play out. I tried to find ways of cheating while play testing and didn't find any, but that doesn't mean one doesn't exist.
