Question about victory conditions

[s_Wondgamb]

Hello all.
Pleade check the attached screen capture. This is the final situation of my last game, an axis victory at turn 19. Although there is an armor unit at Hingeon, it clearly cannot draw a supply road to the east. Isn't the supply road a condition for auto victory? I do not understand why the game gave me an auto victory end of turn 19.
I only have 30 VP.
Did I miss something? Thanks for your help.

Edit: arf, I cannot upload the screen capture from the iPad. I'll do it from PC.
Edit: here you go with the screenshot

Was this Race to the Meuse or Battle of the Bulge?

Thanks for posting that and to my eyes, you are right, that doesn't look right.

Unfortunately from just a screen shot there's little we can do as we need to be able to reproduce it in order to diagnose and fix. Best bet is when something goes wrong do a tap-tap-hold on the dials below the undo button. You might have to do it a few times to get the timing right but it'll eventually open a maroon panel at the bottom of the screen. From there you can file a bug report. Try to give us as much info as you can as every little helps. That email will also contain a screen shot and, more importantly, a save game file, so we can exactly reproduce the situation.

Thanks and sorry about the lack of immediate help.

I don't care if it's a bug, I know it will be fixed and updated. The game is awesome.
I just wanted to make sure I got the victory/defeat conditions right, or if there was some hidden rules.
The scenario was BoB (Meuse doesn't go to turn 19).
thank you guys

Hm. You're right, that shouldn't be a victory, because the Axis need to be able to trace supply for automatic victory. Let me try to reproduce it on this end, we may have a bug here.

Hi,

Just a question : You did the screenshoot on a PC. Does it mean that you can play this game on a PC ? It interrested me because i have a iPad and a PC too...

Thanks

OUPS SORRY, i just read that you POST it from your PC.

You know what, it may be that the victory conditions in the end of the day sequence is checked BEFORE the units supply check ?

Hi guys, I managed to reproduce the bug. This time the armor was in Liege and surrounded by allies units. Auto victory end of day 19.
I can't upload the screenshot but I managed to send a bug using Pat's instructions above, so the screenshot is attached to the mail.
I realize it's a very important bug to fix in order to be able to play a proper games. If you guys could fix it quickly that'd be great

[jeffd]

OK. We also managed to reproduce here at Mission Control. Will be looking at it as soon as we can. Right now we're still dealing with issues around launch.

I had a bad loss as allies despite cutting off the complete German panzer spearhead for 5 days, 7 divisions total. I sent a screenshot via email. I suspect the Germans were awarded vps despite being out of supply.

I think the AI is very susceptible to being cut off from supply, as the Armor outpaces the infantry as fast as it can.

It's been added to the Known Issues list. We'll take a look at it once the developers get back from the weekend.

Just chiming in that I had the same experience: German panzer crossed the Meuse at Wanze before 18;00 Dec. 19th, but was cut off, yet the Axis were still awarded a victory at the end of the turn. (VPs were only 20, insufficient.)

Actually, a fix for this has been made. But we have not had a chance for our Quality Assurance team to look at it (to make sure the change really works and didn’t break anything else).
