Hi all,
Can anyone tell me how the SC3 program runs, i.e. during each turn, what is the first action done,
then next one, etc..until the end of the turn?
thx!

It's a Panzer General type game. No set sequence, any unit can be selected to do something. You can go in/out of diplomacy, research, production, whatever anytime during the turn. Thing is, with only one unit per hex and one unit doing something at any given time, you must orchestrate your turn to optimize unit moves/attacks. It very flexible, not a rigid game. Hope this helps.

First the game calculates supply. Then you get informational popups decisions, and you have to decide how to respond to these before the regular turn starts. After that, you can take the parts of your turn in any order, and your units can split up their action as much as is possible. So you can deploy new units, operationally move units, regular move units, attack/bomb, purchase new units, invest in research, invest in diplomacy, and whatever I'm missing in any order you chose.
