Tanaka Posted August 27, 2000 Share Posted August 27, 2000 Ok... this may look a stange question,and it is Is there any points penalization for a game ended by a cease fire ? Example:Is there a diference in points between a game "Naturaly" ended in turn 20 and a 30 turns game ended in turn 20 by cease fire. Assuming that all kills/obj capture were the same.

Schugger Posted August 27, 2000 Share Posted August 27, 2000 I don't think there is any difference. But remember that both players must prepare for the cease fire in the order phase of turn 21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest *Captain Foobar* Posted August 27, 2000 Share Posted August 27, 2000 what is the significance of turn 21? I am confused..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeydz Posted August 27, 2000 Share Posted August 27, 2000 Depends on how the game naturally ended, I suppose. If it naturally ended because 1 side is decimated, compared to the other, then I think the AI surrenders for you, which naturally doesn't do you score much good. If in naturally ended because both sides refuse to engage and manuever, then I believe that the AI is forcing a cease-fire, so the score probably is reflected by the actual damage inflicted/morale level. I checked the manual and found the auto-surrender, but not auto-ceasefire. IIRC, though, I know that it was discussed before that the AI would end the game if no action took place fore quite awhile. It's been a long time since I saw the reference, so I don't know for sure if it was implemented. I know I have never seen an auto-ceasefire.

David Aitken Posted August 27, 2000 Share Posted August 27, 2000 A ceasefire is by definition a mutual agreement, so I don't think it carries a penalty. When you're playing the AI, and you request a ceasefire, the AI will oblige - but if you're playing against a human, you must both file for a ceasefire before one happens, and you don't know whether the other guy has done this or not. Of course, you can always suggest to him in person that a ceasefire would be in order - but if he's winning, he probably won't agree. =) ------------------ There's a splinter in your eye, and it reads REACT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schugger Posted August 28, 2000 Share Posted August 28, 2000 Foobar As far as I know, Tanaka is playing a ladder game and the rules are that each engagement should only last for twenty turns. By accident the parameters were set to 30 turns and so they have to agree on a cease fire in turn 21 to get the same result if one side does not surrender before.
