Iconoclast Posted July 4, 2000 Share Posted July 4, 2000 I just finished a double-blind PBEM match of a release CD scenario that shall remain nameless because I don't want to make this a spoiler thread. While I try to play "realistically" (i.e. execute my Op Orders) and avoid "gamey" tactics, I was more than a tad confused to be declared the loser in this particular scenario. My opponent and I bled each other white (~50% casualties), I exited about a third of my starting force (which was my objective), and I held the on-map victory locations. He won a tactical victory, and the score was 70-30. Having opened the scenario up with the editor, all I can conclude was that, since my ENTIRE force was eligible to score points by exiting, my opponent must have scored more points for the ~2/3 of my force that didn't exit than I did for the third that got off. Since the bulk of my forces that didn't get off-map were in fact dead (surrounded by a slightly greater number of the enemy), am I correct in thinking that my opponent got points first for killing the units, and second because they didn't exit? That's the only explaination I can think of for the lopsided score in the "wrong" direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Shaw Posted July 4, 2000 Share Posted July 4, 2000 See page 131 in the manual, it confirms that units who score points by exiting also score points for the enemy if they Don't exit. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
