Red Storm: Korsun-Cherkassy pocket. I fulfilled all victory conditions and held all 5 locations to "clear the pocket" When it ended the program claimed I only held 2. Screen shots attached.

I've noted no problems with that scenario (versions 8 and 9). Did you destroy the SS vehicles?

No. There was at least a halftrack and an SPA left.

Destroy every ss vehicle in the kessel. Should help.

Ya ni panimayu. (I don't understand). That's not one of the victory conditions. The big question is why the final screen claims I only captured 2 of the 5 victory points when I clearly had all five.

Attach a screenshot.

The kassel = cauldron. The space between Korsun , Mironovka & Moshni.

"destroy at least 5 SS vehicles" is an extra (primary) objective added later.

"destroy at least 5 SS vehicles" = Clear the pocket

Check my replay.

It is because the counter does not show victory points but the number of SS units destroyed. If it says 2/5, you have only destroyed 2 units, but at least 5 is needed for a victory. There are a total of 6 SS units in the pocket.

OK. Took me a while to figure that out! I save every few turns so I'll go back and try that again. Spacibo!
