Score???

Post by Big Lou »

At the end of a game, when the victory screen appears, a score is listed for each side (i.e allies 4875, axis 831). I cannot find any mention of what affects this number or how it is calculated. Is it based on territories held, units on the board, production points, resources, tech, length of game, etc? For those losers like myself, that are not only interested in winning but maximizing the score, what can you do to increase it?

good question, I would imagine it is mostly production points. however when I've lost with zero production left, I still had a score, so I assume some form of the combat damages and kills is factored in also.

It's based on kills/damage done during the game, territories and other things (I think resources, maybe factories) held at the end of the game.

Joel,

You guys are great and I know you have plenty of things are your plate. But if someone has a chance, I would like to know the details of the calculation. As it stands, it is a rather inscrutable number with little meaning - you must have included it for a reason, so let us know how we can shoot for a big one.
