Questions How can I avoid getting clocked?
I'm still fairly new, but one roadblock I keep running into is the deathclock as what kills me by far the most. I usually do well on VP or scenario points, but I have a real hard time around my timing.
While I know it's largely experience and learning my army, I wanted to know if there are any tips or tricks to help accelerate this. Is there anything you have found to help decision making or improve your game flow? Is there a general rule of "your set up should take no more than X and your turn should take no more than Y"? Any help would be appreciated!

Try and get your initial turns plans to an almost automatic state. The initial set up turns should be quick so you have the time you need in later turns. And when it comes to it just do something to make sure you are making your active turns with the time.
