iPad single player: Battered and Besieged fails to end

Post by PAL_1 »

I'm stuck in a mission that won't end, and I suspect I've hunted down all the German stragglers and fugitives skulking in the woods. When I end the turn (I must be 80 or 100 deep in the scenario by now), the flag flashes instantly back to American.

I strongly suspect a bug, as every other Battle Academy campaign scenario to this point seems well designed. I don't imagine you mean your players to spend hours combing the map corners. On the plus side, it brought me here, where I've discovered plenty of interesting tactical insight.

I'm leery of playing through again lest this issue recur, but I'd like to play the rest of the Bulge scenarios. Any advice?

Aha! Although this scenario is hung up, I now see that the following Bulge scenarios are unlocked. Back at it!

You can move on to any scenario in Bulge without having to play any preceding ones, if that was your worry?

Could you perhaps host a savegame somewhere that I could grab and take a look at? My guess would be that an AI unit has perhaps run away and then failed to rejoin the fight. The mission should end for sure if all the enemy units are dead - do you see anything pop up when you end the turn, even for a moment?

Cheers

Thanks Pip. Pulling a save from my iPad is beyond my technical acumen, and it is a moot point since I'm able to continue the campaign. If any Germans remain, they are welcome to their holes. I've searched more than enough.

This is the first flaw I've experienced in an outstanding tactical design. I hope BA2 also comes to the tablet. I'll gladly pay the premium.

Ah - didn't realise you were on iPad, getting me a save would indeed be fiddly!

Rest assured that BA2 will undoubtedly be on iPad :)

Same issue on ipad2. Hunted the map for many turns. Located a few stragglers hiding and have terminated them. Sadly I am on foot only and makes for a long march. Will move on to the next mission. No worries save for he satisfaction of seeing the end mission screen. FYI.
