And then your Mom would yell "WHAT WERE YOU BORN IN A BARN ????"

And then you yell back, "I DON'T KNOW, WAS I?!?!"

And then she says, "HOW SHOULD I KNOW?? YOU WERE ADOPTED!!"

And then you cry.

Oh well. Can't make everyone happy I guess.

I think you can only open and close the door on YOUR turn, not your teammate's turn.

Fortress rules; page 4
Rules for Opening and Closing the Door
....the controlling player may open or close the Door whenever needed.

The Door may be opened or closed by the controlling player for his/her own figures and for other figures they may want to pass through. The controlling player may open or close the Door even when it is not his/her turn.

Yup. When I got home I checked the rulebook.

Since this thread was last posted to, I'm pretty sure there been a subsequent ruling (latest FAQ v.8.4 pg. 15) that amends the "whenever needed" clause:

Quote:

ERRATA: You may only open/close the door during your teammate's turns, or your own turn. You can
now no longer open or close the door during an opponent’s turn, so before you finish yours or your
teammate’s turn, make sure the door is in the position that you want it!

I wouldn't do it cause the enemy can get in if you leave it on.
