Default Re: Scenario end turn

It is based on the AI's force level and whether it has a chance at the VPs.

A "Broken" force with no VPs (and nothing near one) will throw in the towel - this can be after less than 10 turns especially if you have been lucky with your artillery and killed the HQ.
If the AI has kept some of its force as reinforcements (usually slated to arrive at the halfway point) the game will not end till then at the earliest.

A game can be extended if some VPs are still being actively contested.

The answer is you usually have a feel for it - If you have all the VPs and the AI seems to be running out of units it will probably give up soon. - If you are in a hard fight for the last few VP hexes and you are nearing the alloted time limit it may be extended.
