It’s ambiguous if the other players with lower health are eliminated, or if they (and their units/buildings) stay in play while their controllers just skip turns (and maybe get back in the game, if the tied players lose equal life and end up at the same health - or win if they both fall below him)
I don’t think its ambiguous, I think “the tied players each take one more turn” is clear enough. I also think you can still win by breaking that initial tie with lower health than the players that weren’t part of the tie, as long as you are highest among those that were initially tied. That said, the couple FFA games I’ve done, the games have not had any ties.

I think it’s fair to let untied players remain eligible for comeback, although in practice I don’t want there to be a case where the first player eliminated is sitting around more than 1-2 rounds waiting to see who wins.

[details=My Thoughts][spoiler]
It’s tough, on the one hand I want to “play to keep the most ahead player down”, but on the other hand I want to “attack in ways that best benefit my own plan”. I’m going with the latter this turn, as while I think Black can easily run away with this game, I have a mostly free hero kill on Purple and a big threat in Green’s Tiny B.
Teching in one FDS in case Sets continues to be ignored, but in case she isn’t I better start a tech 2 plan. YLD seems pretty safe as a choice. Here’s to hoping Sets doesn’t attract too much attention to herself!

White and Black definitely seem to be setting the tone of this fight.

Anyone else thinking we need to gang up on Black here?? If hes gets a plague labs or crows or metamorph or Abominaiton/Spreading plague combo I dont think any of us will be winning. @zhavier no offense lad, just a tad bit overwhelmed by you continuously gaining 3 gold and decimating patrols with 1 spell haha

If I get lent some patrollers/be not attacked this coming round to relieve some pressure, I can spare a Free Speech or two on Black the next turn while the lot of you charge in. (Outright table talk feels more realistic then pm alliances)

@Request I know I sort of burned you before, but I might be able to take care of Gorgon if you can capitalize on it the following turn in exchange for sparing me from yo attacks.
White also seems like a big threat here as well. Maybe @Feathers you can try to do some dmg there? and then Request and I can try to deal with Zhavier?
Overt table talk out of control haha

Agreed, might as well conspire in the open. One of us is going to have to trade poorly, the black patrols have always been tough to go at b/c there wasn’t anything favorable there.
I’ll be focusing my pressure that way on my next turn though. Hoping neglecting Present and Peace tech 2 doesn’t come back to haunt me 
Plague lab only hits one opponent, just FYI… 
But seriously, I was kinda expecting the hate, but its worth noting that instead of leaving a completely open patrol for others to attack through, I let you rebuild before anyone else takes a turn…
Yeah it actually looks like me and @feathers are in the weakest position here haha We gotta stick together on this one man!
I find that especially amusing given your initial positions.
White is definitely where I think the biggest threat is right now, but Present is quickly topping the list.
Says the player with the scary heroes and deathtouch gorgon and is killing all our units all the time lol
Don’t disagree about Frozen though. Are we really not going to try to address the maxband Sets over there?
I can do damage if my patrollers are left alive. Looking at you, @FrozenStorm, taking oppurtunity kills on me since turn 1 
I’d say crippling black is more immediately important right now, too many ways to snowball. Sets is worrying but her spells are more predictable and domestic
I left the other ramabasa so someone could send it back to codex, btw.
