I have played this senario multiple times and usually at the end of turn 15 (though once as early as end of 13 & once as late as 17) it just goes ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Says Swedish turn then jumps immediately to residual fire phases and goes for 3 to 5 turns unable to even exit the game as it just skips past the Swedish move. Fortunately mostly I have been so close to winning that the effect of the Swedish musketry gives the few routs needed to exit that way. when the scenario did this at the end of turn 13 I had to crash my PC to get out!

Until there is a fix I won't be playing that scenario and am looking side ways at others!
Has anyone else had a similar issue?

Nearest I've seen is that at times (I think during residual fire) the mouse pointer gets automatically placed over where the 'next turn' button is when it shows. If you're using a touchpad (and I guess a touchscreen) it's very easy to accidentally trigger 'next move' when you try an pick up the pointer at the start of a turn. The way to avoid it happening is to make sure you move the pointer away if it appears there during the residual fire/melee phase and aboid the temptation to keep hitting space as the melee results appear.

Might be worth bearing this in mind for the iPad edition in particular.
