0.2.6-dev: browser tests read the round's real rules — free deploy tiles come from the client's own placement legality (terrain 机变 cards, devices, the boss half) instead of the stage's plain tiles, the facing tour waits for a later round when its purchase merged into an elite, and real.e2e skips its one strategy turn only while 跳过 is enabled (PR #546); golden: unchanged
