I would like to settle a disagreement between some of my fellow Jyhad
players and myself. The disagreement is this: I believe that each player
completes all phases of his turn and then play passes to the next player,
while my friends believe that each player completes one phase then the
next person completes that phase and so on. Which is correct? If it is
the latter then doesn't the last player have a distinct advantage (since
during his minion phase he need not leave any vampires untapped for
defense as the untap phase comes before any other player's minions may
act).
Thanks in advance for your help

You are correct.

You were right, each player compleats all phases, then play passes to the
left.

You are correct. In section 12, I quote: "Turns proceed clockwise around
the playing area. Your turn is as follows: 0) Untap - You untap all your
cards. 1) Master - You may play one Master card." etc.
It should be clear that a player gets all phases during a single turn;
only after a player's turn is complete does the turn proceed clockwise.
