Close Combat – Last Stand Arnhem is a highly enhanced new release of Close Combat, using the latest Close Combat engine with many additional improvements. Its design is based on the critically acclaimed Close Combat – A Bridge Too Far, originally developed by Atomic Games, as well as the more recent Close Combat: The Longest Day. This is the most ambitious and most improved of the new Close Combat releases, but along with all the enhancements it retains the same addicting tactical action found in the original titles! Close Combat – Last Stand Arnhem comes with expanded force pools, reserve & static battlegroups, a troop point buying system, ferry and assault crossings, destructible bridges, static forces and much more! Also included in this rebuild are 60+ battles, operations and campaigns including a new enhanced Grand Campaign!

What situation causes the timer to increase during battle?

When a player captures a VL after all VLs were previously in possession of an opposing player, and the 2-minute timer was triggered?

I checked that out before I posted the question to see if there were two situations where the timer increased but the "two minute countdown" after taking the last VL with less than 2 mins on the timer doesnt increase it to 2.

HINT - its also the only situation wbere you can lose your last man and the battle wont end.

Yup, the timer resets to 10 secs when a bridge blows regardless of whether there is 1 hour or 1 second left when that happens, or whether every last defender (or attacker) was killed in the detonation.

10 seconds is just long enough to make you realise you didnt make it to the VL's ! I have seen it a few too many times.....
