PBEM Advantage - Rebs ?

Post by vonSchnitter »

Just me again !

I just stumbled over something. And I would like to understand it.
I am playing my first PBEM in this game - as the Rebs.
When I hit the End-Turn, I can see a number of messages while some sort of message window pops up.
While I waited for the end of the messages, I moved my mouse - reaching out for a cold one.
And guess what, the (greyish) background of the splash screen moved around. At a closer look, my impression was, the background showed the final position of all units after combat resolution ?

Does that mean, I can run the move as a Reb, till the resolution suits me ?

What is going on here ?

Cheers

You were able to move the rectangle that normally hides the screen?  Would you mind posting a screenshot of what you're talking about, I'm not sure I can picture it exactly.

Thanks!

As far as I can tell, the positions of units on the background are the "final" ones for this turn.
btw. both shots from the same turn
