upon going threw the saved battles of the flashfyre effort, I knoticed that I regularly got 3 points for the victorious ones whether or not they were MV,or DV.
No points for draws,? even if your side still holds VH's ??
I am hopeing someone can explain what perameters the AI uses to come up with its score and IF casualties play any part in the scoreing??

what calculations are going on to allow my camp score to double from the 3rd to 4th battle??

and again??

You get 1 point for a marginal victory.
You get 3 points for a decisive victory.
You get 0 points for a draw.
You lose 1 point for a marginal defeat.
I don't remember how many points you lose for a decisive defeat.

thanks much sir, so I guess casualties have no bearing ? which is strange considering the AI credits exited units after turn 25 to the delaying force,? or at least thats how I took it to mean from the manual?

Now you know why I was advocating my "German Long Campaign Extreme Campaign" all those months ago.  I wanted to change the way campaigns were scored.  Now you know why.  I had come up with a superior solution for campaign scoring but nobody was interested.  That solution is still superior, but still nobody is interested.

Casualties play a part in the actual scoring. The campaign does not credit "retreated" units with any point value; only if the campaign used the Exit Victory Hex flags would that work. But that's a "special" VH flag that only applies to Scenario Design.
