Question on early victory?

Post by stromwall »

As German I've managed to win an early victory a couple of times in the long scenario, even though my Panzer unit on the other side of Meuse has been out of supply. I have not been able to trace a supply line from the unit to the eastern map edge, still I win. How come? What am I missing?

I think that's a known bug. (someone please correct me if I'm wrong)

Thanks for the information.

Feels like a crucial one to get fixed.

Couldn't agree more. I was just hit by this bug in an online game today. I had managed to lull the Axis player into breaking through with two very strong armor units to cross the Meuse and then I closed in behind creating a strong defensive line against further attack and cutting off supply to those Axis armor units. I was quite excited about the upcoming conflict and was gutted when at the end of the day I was declared the loser when I clearly had a major upper hand in the battle.

There is an update in the App Store and IIRC that is one of the fixes

It's possible I was the Axis player but, even if that was not the case, the perspective would have been a little different:
I had managed to lull the Allied player into allowing two very strong armor units to cross the Meuse. He apparently thought that supply mattered for the early victory condition.
Needless to say, I'm glad the fix is in.
