Victory Conditions

[IronWarrior]

I'm trying to understand the victory conditions at the end of the game. How do I read this screen...?



My opponent said I ended up with a major victory at the end, but the manual says it's based on the "point differential" of each side? Wouldn't that leave me with 50 points? (150-100) From the screenshot it seems like that would mean a draw, even if you take the Withdrawal Level into consideration I would think that would still only give me a "Tactical Victory" (if that even has an affect in this case).

A side may win a “Decisive Victory,” a “Tactical Victory,” or a “Draw.” These levels of victory are based the point differential of each side.
Battle Withdrawal Level: If the winning side has reached its Battle Withdrawal Level, its Victory Level is lowered by one step from Decisive to Marginal or from Marginal to Draw.

Badly worded, I guess... what it means is that it checks how many points you have against the requirements for a decisive or marginal victory. That's the differential that is mentioned.

 In your case, you qualify for marginal. What the manual then omits is that the withdrawal level is taken into account both ways - if you reach yours, that decreases the grade of your victory, if the enemy reaches his, that increases the grade of victory for you. So, marginal vp + enemy below withdraw level = decisive victory for you.

Thanks Jack, that makes sense then.
