Playing a GC with force morale on, line vs line, appears that when the battle ends due to force morale on bridge maps, and if the allies have not taken the bridge vls and if there is still time left on the demo clock, the remainder/balance of this time is transfered to the next battle on this map. Eg, was attacking St odenrode, line vs line, germans get 10 min to blow the bridge, battle ended due to force morale before the allies could grab the vls with about 4:50 min, next battle the allies had about 5:10 left to take the bridge. This seems reasonable, if the battle ends due to german FM the allies should get the balance of the time the next battle to take the bridge before demolition. However, went back and played another test operation, this appears to happen as well even if the germans cause the battle to end due to allied force morale, and even if Allies get kicked off the map, when they come back to attack again they had the balance of time left. Not sure about this, seems like if the allies attack a bridge and are forced to retreat or regroup, any time left on the demo timer should go to zero in favor of the german player, The element of suprise would be gone and give the germans the time/option to blow the bridge while the allies reorganize/regroup to try and retake the bridge. Granted this will probably not occur very often on maps like Son and best where the timer is short, but could make a difference on the bridges that have longer time limits.
