zwobot Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Hi, I'm playing a PBEM multiplayer scenario (Al Amarah) as Red. I am almost totally exterminated and only 30 of the 90 minutes time limit are over and no reinforcements are in sight for me so I want to surrender to my opponent. Therefore I press the "surrender" button in the game menue and confirm my choice with the "yes" button. Then I press the "go" button again and save the email file and send it to my opponent but the scenario did not end for him as far as I can tell and when I opened his next email file the scenario was not over for me, too. Have I done something wrong with the surrender or is this a known problem? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zwobot Posted September 13, 2008 Author Share Posted September 13, 2008 To some reason I cannot edit above post so: the surrender worked after a second try. But I still don't know why it did not want to work one turn earlier in the scenario. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkEzra Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 You had to cycle through the full turn. That means both you and your opponent. The surrender is excepted on the next new, full turn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eniced73 Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 How does this affect points? Is it better (point-wise) to ride out the game turns (if only a few remain or you are in O.T.) or does it not matter if you just surrender at that point. My point in case is: My PBEM opponent is taking his objective as of the 5th turn in O.T.. I do not have the defensive forces to stop him and am considering a surrender (to save us both the hassle of dragging the battle out). This is a tourney game and based on points. Would it be better for me (point wise) to drag this out and hope the game ends with still a couple of my forces in the objective zone? Or will the same points get rewarded regardless of my remaining forces in the objective zone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
