I hope it's not to late to confess that my R'Lyeh pretender isn't a human with 10 Points/Path because there aren't any. But I tried to take the next best thing.

Being a newbie, I have a newbie question (suprise suprice).
What is the infamous Clam everybody is talking about? Should I bring my oyster knife?

Please note that depending on my work schedule I won't be able to post a turn for 2-3 days at times. For example, since I'm working the next 3 days, I won't be able to post again until this Sunday.

It's a magic item. Clam of Pearls, Consruction 2, requires water 2 to create and 10 water gems. It creates 1 astral pearl/turn thereafter.

Some people with a mathematical mind realized that this could create exponetial growth, applied that theory to the game, and found that indeed they got it with destabilizing effects. So they are out!

Ok, I've seen it. Just didn't realize it could be misused. Seemed quite harmless to me.

Thank you.

Does the computer play my turn when I can't play a turn? Like I stated below, I've been unable to post for a few days. What is autoplay??

When you do not take your turn, it is equivalent of taking a turn without doing anything. At all. So if you had queued recruiting at castles, those proceed, but all your armies will just sit there.

Should we upgrade to the new 2.12 patch?

So how do I know what the time limit is before I have to take my turn? In other words, how do I avoid skipping a turn without doing anything?
