I’ve noticed this in many of my games: according to the log my opponents get to attack me about 4X more than I can attack !
So what’s the secret to this site that it allows more seasoned players to have an advantage?

Hmmmmm, maybe we should examine your logic flow chart:

"I keep losing" >

(Cause choices)

1) More here to learn than I thought 

2) I'm not as good as I thought I was

3) Illogical programming

Must be number 3, because no way it could be 1 or 2.

@Hootz:  Don't engage.  He/she is shilling for a different site.

got an example?

@BTF - i'm not necessarily going to shut him out just cus he's started off on the wrong foot. I don't think his site is going to revive to it's glory day(s); so why not be kind and maybe they jump over here? Now if he continues in that vein, then...

I'm aware, however practicing restraint before my full compliment of caffeine is a lifelong struggle.  

;)

Oh we haven't had a good one of these in a while.

Everything's in the log, friend. Troop reinforcements come from territory bonus and any continent bonuses owned. Read the board description and use board explorer to poke around, if the description and image don't make it obvious what you're seeing.

If you have any particular questions or get stuck somewhere - the interface isn't always perfectly intuitive - let us know what specifically is giving you trouble and we can get you pointed in the right direction.

To make it even easier, if you throw down a few bucks for a premium membership, you get a little matrix on the game page that shows each player's bonus (as far as you can see given the fog setting).

I'm not gonna make the Super Premium joke that I want to because something tells me it wouldn't go over well.

I swear on Blandensburg that Berickf did get 4 extra attacks each turn!

Here's my guess.  Some maps have 'limited attacks'.    For example Iwo Jima has 6 attacks....

That means you get 6 times to click on the attack popup.

If you attack by clicking on the '3' each time, you are going to get to roll the dice 6 times, and that is it.

Instead you want to use the "multi-attack options".

If you use the 'T', 'A', or the dropdown for attacking, then you get to "roll the dice" many more times.

I probably didn't do a great job of explaining that, but hopefully it made sense.

Look under 'attack' on this page to see more details:
