Editing Time

On each Erathian day, players can move their forces and manage their territories in turns. This does not happen simultaneously - rather, each player takes a turn, and then passes on to the next player.  Once all players have had their turn, the current day ends and a new day begins.

At the beginning of each day, [[mine]]s and [[Town|cities]] you control add to your [[resource]]s.  Resources represent [[gold]] and raw materials you may spend to improve your towns, recruit troops, and perform other actions.  Town buildings that producing creatures do so on the first day of the week.  [[Artifact merchants|Artifact Merchant]]s replenish their stock on the first day of the month.  The current date appears in the lower right corner of the [[Adventure Map]] screen.

Some weeks and months are [[growth#Special weeks and months|special]], increasing growth for a specific creature type (or, in the case of [[plague]], decreasing for all).

The order in which players take their turns is as follows (assuming all colours are in the game and all players are human):
* Red
* Blue
* Tan
* Green
* Orange
* Purple
* Cyan
* Pink

This is also the order in which the players appear in the [[buildings common to all towns#Tavern|tavern]].

If there are computer players, they always have their turns after all human players.
