boethos -> 1939 Scenario Victory Conditions (5/15/2008 4:39:04 PM)
|
I was playing the 1939 scenario as the West and Russia, I had survived into March 1942 and thought the outcome was still in question. Then to my surprise, Russia surrendered and I lost. I don't understand why Russia surrendered, according to what I read in the Briefing under Victory Conditions, Russia surrenders when it loses Moscow and Stalingrad. I had lost Stalingrad several turns earlier, but Moscow had not fallen yet. The turn Russia surrendered, Germany had just captured Kazan, leaving Russia with Leningrad and Moscow. But Moscow was definitely still in Russian control. The victory conditions specifically mention Moscow and Stalingrad, but it also says 'Germany wins if it ...prevents... Russia from getting an arrival card.' Russia also has an arrival card for Leningrad, so technically Russia still had two arrival cards when it surrendered. Did I misunderstand the victory conditions? If they are not as stated in the Briefing, then what are they? [&:]
