Hi,
Has anyone else noticed that sometimes despite utterly crushing the computer in a scenario, you're only awarded a marginal victory?
For example I'm playing a US Vs. SU 1986 Campaign. At the end of the first scenario (a meeting engagement) the score was 15235 US vs. 1949 Soviets. I had lost 32 men, 7 AFVs, 1 Helo and 1 Aircraft to the computers 591 men, 3 artillery, 27 APCs, 47 AFVs. I gained control of all of the objective hexes early in the game, and only briefly (2 turns) lost control of 2. The game lasted for 17 turns, the last 5 turns being primarly spent hunting down the computers mortars, crews, and inf SAMs and dealing with small counter-attack by a plt of BMP-2 arriving as re-enforcements. I destroyed all of the computers units but 4 (a mech section, a BMP-2, a SA-7, and a 12.7mm HMG section). I was only granted a "marginal victory". Any idea why? I've had similar results in the past.
