victory points battle

Post by Maulet »

Hello,

I am playing again this great game [&o][&o] with the last patch 1.12.2

I have won 2 big battles with more than 21k soldiers killed in total, but I have not victory points in my panel.

Has been changed it in last patch? What are the conditions to add points for me when I won a big battle?

I am playing federals, february 1862.

Thanks!

Maulet,
At this point I don't remember what changes might have been made, and since I'm out of town I can't check. Have you looked at the readme file to see if victory point conditions were changed? That would say, and if it says nothing then no change was made.

There is indeed a note for 1.12.2:
"VPs are now properly assigned only for decisive battles."

And from the manual:
"4.3.2 Decisive Battles
A Decisive Battle is one in which each side brought a total of at least 40,000 Strength into battle,
and the total casualties (i.e. inflicted damage, or losses to Strength on both sides) are at least 10,000 Strength.
Note that the losses during pursuit that are shown at the end of Quick Combat count towards casualties.
(However, any units captured during pursuit afterwards do not count towards casualties.)"

Hope this helps.
