No problems, did enjoy the game and didn't feel robbed, more confused that I was missing something more to the victory conditions. Good to find out I wasn't.

Hi just purchased this game couple of nights ago. Played the above scenario (title) for my first game. I have read instruction manual and did a find search under 'stalemate' but could not find an explanation as to why the above scenario finished as a stalemate, when I had met the minor victory conditions of the scenario. Minor victory was Calcutta, Dimapur, Kohima, Imphal. Allies needed to take Mandalay for Major victory which my troops were only 1 or 2 turns away from assaulting, (I know you SC2 vets would have done way better but was my first game). Anyway why when I held all the minor victory conditions did the end game come up as a stalemate instead of minor victory, there were only a handful of Japanese units left do you have to eliminate every unit as well? Thanks for any advice.

Thanks for that Alaric. I went ahead and bought Pacific last night and from my brief play time with it am not disappointed. I will look at downloading the mod you refer to. I suspect I will still end up buying the SC2 + WAW bundle a couple of months down the track still though. Thanks.

Apologies, disregard above post. Have read some further posts in the PDE forum and aprox the last 10 pages from the Pacific War forum. Only decision I have now is whether to purchase Pacific 1st or SC2 + WAW bundle 1st

I have browsed the previous 10 odd pages of this forum to try and help me decide what to buy. A post back in July 08 stated the AI was improved in PDE and there was thoughts (certainly not guarantees) of the older scenarios from SC2 being converted over. Has this happened? I am really mostly interested in the original scenarios but would prefer the best AI possible since that will be 98% of my game time. Finally, if not, I suppose that leaves me with the SC2 and WAW pack to purchase, will the AI be revisted in WAW to bring it to the standard of PDE?
