How do you end a MP game early when it has become very evident there is no need to continue playing?

ask or do surrender?

Under the menu, there is a 'surrender' option, default hotkey 'esc'. You can only surrender during your active turn though, and only while playing the game. Surrender cannot be accessed from the game lobby (that place that lists all of your active games)

Thank you that is why I'm a private first class. For all you other privates the menu button is the one to the far right with the two little cogs. You can scroll over the button and a description will appear over the button. It will not take you out of the game if you click on it.
One other quick "private 1st class" question. I may post this in a separate post if it is not answered here.
When you click on the results tab it only shows the scenario name, your opponents name and the time the last move was made. Am I missing something?
ie should it show the type of victory or loss?

Surrender!?

Fight on to your objective and complete your mission, though you be the lone survivor!
