You might want to check the colander option to see how many turns the game has.

Check events to make sure you do not have an end game inadvertently set.

Make sure at least one unit from each force is on the map if at any time no units from either force are on the map it will end the game.

Zip and attach an SCE file for your creation, and someone can look at it for the cause of your problem.

Hi!

What does it say when you "View" - "Properties" when you open the scenario with the editor?

Look for any items listed as "critical."

Also, when you go to play the scenario, in the scenario description, does it give you a big warning saying something like "This scenario is incomplete"?

well,both units have plenty of deployed men.

Including at least one ground unit from each side?
"What did you read at university?"
"War Studies"
"War? Huh. What is it good for?"
"Absolutely nothing."

Navigate to the folder that contains your scenario file. Right-click on the scenario file, and choose "Send to..." then "Compressed (zipped) Folder". Then post a reply in this thread. Click on the link below the reply box, where it says "Click here to upload!" and browse to the location of your compressed scenario file. If your scenario was named "My Battle.sce" then the zipped file would be named "My Battle.zip". Select that file for uploading. Then OK the reply to this thread.

Uhh,well,the problem is different now.Now,the Force 2 troops dont even show up on the map.I even went to the editor,removed the units,placed them again where they had been,then saved and clicked "go to game".I chose my scenario,but the units were still missing.

Please send the scenario to someone using email or attach it in a zip file. This is the fastest way to resolve the problem.

Then, click "Click here to upload!"

Select the file from your computer, click okay.. et voila!
