Hawkmek Posted October 6, 2000 Share Posted October 6, 2000 I was recently assimilated and I have seen many posts complaining about the anti-climatic AAR. I have not seen any about when the AI decides it has had enough. Is there a way for the computer to end the game after hitting the DONE button rather than the GO button for the next move. It usually occurs as I have them on the run, and I plot all my devastating moves eager to see those dirty (AXIS/ALLIED) Armies destroyed, eagerly licking my chops as I hit the go button, only to receive the first few bars of Taps and that AAR screen. Couldn't they have capitulated at the end of the last turn? Has this been mentioned elsewhere? Just a thought... I do so love this game though. And my new wife is about to look for a new home if I keep playing CM nightly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Croda Posted October 6, 2000 Share Posted October 6, 2000 The surrender has to be issued in the Orders Phase...thus they can't actually surrender until the action phase carries out the surrender order. Or at least that's my take on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Michael emrys Posted October 6, 2000 Share Posted October 6, 2000 That sounds a lot more likely than my own take on it, which was that it had to see the devastating moves I was planning for the next turn before it knew that the jig was up.

Hawkmek Posted October 6, 2000 Author Share Posted October 6, 2000 If what you say is true Croda, then I guess it is somehting I'll have to live with. It just seems like a waste of time though. Looking forward to CM2 even though I just got CM two weeks ago. Rock-solid stability and easy learning curve. Great game BTS!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109 Gustav Posted October 7, 2000 Share Posted October 7, 2000 Slow computer, I presume? Cheer up, it gives you more time to gloat over your brilliant strategy that's gonna make them surrender any time now ------------------ Well my skiff's a twenty dollar boat, And I hope to God she stays afloat.
