+@page game_event_handler GameEventHandler
+
+## Overview
+
+`GameEventHandler` is the central coordinator for **game-wide commands and events**.
+It acts as the bridge between the networking layer (protobuf messages received from
+the server) and the local game model and UI.
+
+Unlike `PlayerEventHandler`, which is responsible for player-scoped state and zones,
+`GameEventHandler` handles:
+
+- Global game flow (turns, phases, host changes)
+- Player and spectator lifecycle events
+- Chat and logging events
+- Dispatching incoming events to the appropriate subsystem
+- Sending locally initiated commands to the server
+
+In short, it is the **top-level event dispatcher** for an active game.
+
+---
+
+## Responsibilities
+
+`GameEventHandler` has four primary responsibilities:
+
+### 1. Sending game-wide commands
+
+UI actions that affect the game as a whole (e.g. advancing the turn, changing phases,
+sending chat messages) are translated into protobuf commands and sent to the server
+via this class.
+
+Examples include:
+
+- Advancing or reversing the turn order
+- Conceding or unconceding
+- Changing the active phase
+- Leaving the game
+- Sending chat messages
+
+These commands are wrapped in `PendingCommand` instances so their lifecycle and
+responses can be tracked.
+
+---
+
+### 2. Processing incoming game events
+
+Incoming server messages arrive as a `GameEventContainer`.
+`GameEventHandler` is responsible for:
+
+- Emitting lifecycle signals before and after processing
+- Dispatching each event to the correct handler
+- Forwarding player-scoped events to `PlayerEventHandler` instances
+- Handling spectator-only and game-global events directly
+
+This design keeps networking concerns isolated from game logic and UI code.
+
+---
+
+### 3. Managing global game state transitions
+
+Certain events affect the entire game state and require coordinated updates across
+multiple subsystems. Examples include:
+
+- Full game state synchronization
+- Active player or phase changes
+- Game host changes
+- Game closure
+- Turn reversal
+
+`GameEventHandler` ensures these events are processed in a consistent order and
+that all interested systems are notified via Qt signals.
+
+---
+
+### 4. Emitting UI and logging signals
+
+Rather than directly manipulating UI widgets, `GameEventHandler` emits
+high-level signals that are consumed by:
+
+- Game widgets
+- Player and spectator lists
+- Message and event logs
+- Status indicators (ready state, deck selection, connection state)
+
+This keeps the handler independent of concrete UI implementations.
+
+---
+
+## Relationship to PlayerEventHandler
+
+`GameEventHandler` and `PlayerEventHandler` work together but have distinct roles:
+
+| GameEventHandler | PlayerEventHandler |
+|------------------|--------------------|
+| Global game state | Per-player state |
+| Turn / phase flow | Zones and cards |
+| Player join/leave | Player actions |
+| Spectator events | Player-specific events |
+| Chat dispatch | Card and zone updates |
+
+When a server event is associated with a specific player, `GameEventHandler`
+routes it to the corresponding `PlayerEventHandler`. Events without a player
+context are handled directly.
+
+---
+
+## Event Processing Flow
+
+A typical incoming event flow looks like this:
+
+1. `AbstractClient` receives a `GameEventContainer`
+2. `GameEventHandler::processGameEventContainer()` is called
+3. `containerProcessingStarted()` is emitted
+4. Each event is:
+    - Handled directly **or**
+    - Forwarded to a `PlayerEventHandler`
+5. Logging and UI signals are emitted as needed
+6. `containerProcessingDone()` is emitted
+
+This structured flow makes it easy to:
+
+- Suppress UI updates during replays
+- Handle reconnections cleanly
+- Detect flood protection or error states
+
+---
+
+## Command Lifecycle
+
+Outgoing commands follow a similar structured path:
+
+1. UI action triggers a `handle*()` method
+2. A protobuf command is constructed
+3. The command is wrapped in a `PendingCommand`
+4. `sendGameCommand()` sends it to the server
+5. `commandFinished()` receives the response
+6. Errors or flood conditions are handled centrally
+
+This approach avoids duplicated error handling across UI code.
+
+---
+
+## Design Goals
+
+`GameEventHandler` is designed to be:
+
+- **Centralized** – one entry point for all game-wide events
+- **UI-agnostic** – communicates via signals, not widgets
+- **Predictable** – well-defined event ordering and lifecycle
+- **Composable** – works in concert with `PlayerEventHandler`
+- **Testable** – logic is separated from rendering

+@page player_event_handler PlayerEventHandler
+
+## Overview
+
+`PlayerEventHandler` is responsible for applying **player-scoped game events**
+to a single `Player` instance. These events modify the player’s board state,
+zones, cards, counters, arrows, and associated UI and logging output.
+
+Each `PlayerEventHandler` instance is bound **1:1 to a Player** and is invoked
+exclusively by @ref GameEventHandler after basic routing and validation of
+incoming server events.
+
+This class represents the lowest-level authoritative application of game state
+changes on the client.
+
+---
+
+## Scope and Authority
+
+`PlayerEventHandler` operates under the following guarantees:
+
+- All incoming events are **authoritative** and already validated by the server
+- Events refer to valid players, zones, and card identifiers
+- Ordering is guaranteed by the server and preserved by `GameEventHandler`
+
+As a result, the handler does **not** perform rule validation or permission
+checks. Its responsibility is to *apply* state, not *decide* legality.
+
+---
+
+## Responsibilities
+
+### 1. Applying player-specific state changes
+
+The primary responsibility of `PlayerEventHandler` is to mutate player-owned
+state, including:
+
+- Cards (`CardItem`)
+- Zones (`CardZoneLogic`)
+- Counters (card-level and player-level)
+- Attachments and arrows
+- Zone configuration flags (reveal / peek behavior)
+
+Many handlers update both **logical state** and **visual/UI state** in tandem.
+
+---
+
+### 2. Coordinating complex card movement
+
+Some events—most notably card movement—require coordinated updates across
+multiple systems. For example, `eventMoveCard()`:
+
+- Removes the card from the source zone
+- Updates ownership, visibility, and identity
+- Handles attachments and arrow cleanup
+- Emits undo-draw or move logs
+- Inserts the card into the destination zone
+- Updates menus, hover state, and graphics
+
+This makes `PlayerEventHandler` intentionally stateful and tightly coupled to
+the board implementation.
+
+---
+
+### 3. Emitting logging signals
+
+Rather than writing directly to logs or widgets, `PlayerEventHandler` emits
+structured Qt signals describing *what happened*, including:
+
+- Chat messages
+- Card movement
+- Shuffles and randomization
+- Reveals and peeks
+- Counter and attribute changes
+
+These signals are consumed by logging systems and UI components, keeping
+presentation concerns out of the handler.
+
+Logging signals may be emitted **before or after mutation**, depending on
+whether later changes would invalidate log data (e.g. card identity).
+
+---
+
+### 4. Handling cross-player interactions
+
+Although bound to a single player, some events necessarily affect other
+players’ state, including:
+
+- Moving cards between players
+- Attaching cards to another player’s permanents
+- Creating arrows targeting other players or cards
+
+In these cases, `PlayerEventHandler` performs the minimal required mutation
+while respecting ownership boundaries enforced elsewhere.
+
+---
+
+## Event Dispatch Model
+
+`PlayerEventHandler` exposes a single public entry point:
+
+- `processGameEvent()`
+
+This method:
+
+1. Receives a generic `GameEvent`
+2. Switches on `GameEventType`
+3. Extracts the appropriate protobuf extension
+4. Forwards the event to a typed handler
+
+This keeps the event routing centralized and makes it easy to audit coverage
+when new game events are introduced.
+
+Unhandled events are logged as warnings.
+
+---
+
+## Event Categories
+
+For clarity, event handlers are grouped conceptually into:
+
+- **Chat and randomization**
+    - Chat messages
+    - Shuffles
+    - Dice rolls
+
+- **Arrows and targeting**
+    - Create / delete arrows
+
+- **Card and token creation**
+    - Token generation
+    - Counter creation
+
+- **Card attributes and counters**
+    - Tapped state
+    - Power/toughness
+    - Annotations
+    - Card- and player-level counters
+
+- **Zone-level operations**
+    - Card movement
+    - Zone dumps
+    - Card destruction
+    - Attachments
+
+- **Draw and reveal**
+    - Drawing cards
+    - Reveals, peeks, and reveal windows
+
+- **Zone configuration**
+    - Always-reveal and always-look-at-top-card flags
+
+This grouping mirrors the structure of the header file and reflects the
+conceptual responsibilities of the class.
+
+---
+
+## Relationship to GameEventHandler
+
+`PlayerEventHandler` is never instantiated or invoked directly by UI code.
+Instead:
+
+1. `GameEventHandler` receives a `GameEventContainer`
+2. Player-scoped events are routed to the appropriate `PlayerEventHandler`
+3. Global or spectator events are handled elsewhere
+
+This separation keeps game-wide logic decoupled from player board state and
+makes reconnection and replay handling simpler.
+
+---
+
+## Design Intent
+
+`PlayerEventHandler` is designed to be:
+
+- **Authoritative** – applies server state exactly as received
+- **Stateful** – maintains consistency across cards, zones, and UI
+- **Explicit** – one handler per event type
+- **UI-aware** – updates views and menus as part of state mutation
+- **Auditable** – easy to trace what code handles which event
