Unexpected loss when playing Axis in Gazala Line

Post by firefoxgs »

Panzer Corps Wehrmacht:
When playing the Axis player in the campaign, I got the following defeat notification: "Generaloberst, your defeat is total. You have failed in all your objectives and must abandon the field to the Allies." I was playing the easiest mode, as Sergeant, and had captured all of the objectives and had destroyed a supply depot with a value of 1. Two of the objectives were way in to the British rear. There were very few (less than a handful) British units left on the field. I believe this must be an error in the software, because I could have done no better. (I do not normally play the Sergeant mode, but wanted to this time as something that would not challenge me.)

I don't remember, maybe worth comparing here or checking the editor for the map triggers/detailed victory conditions, etc.

By the way, I thought Gazala Line is part of Afrika Korps. Loss leads to dismissal.

I believe you have to take and hold all objectives

Did you achieve this?
