Default Is it possible to surrender in a PBEM game?

Hi,

I'm playing a PBEM game that have gone too far now, i.e. I'm just wasting gaming time, since my opponent has crushed my forces. So can I somehow surrender and thereby give us both an opportunity to check out the map and what we have left?

Cheers
Mark

Nope, sorry. We had included a surrender feature years ago then discovered people were using it to cheat and we could find no way to prevent it so it was removed from the code.

You can try retreating your units off your side of the map. When enough leave the game should end.

Sometimes the AI will take pity on you and end the game early; this happens in PBEM too.

Potion

Retreating off the map seems to work well and I'm playing a PBEM Campaign, a handier method there for sure.
