Did I Win ??

Tue Apr 17, 2007 9:23 pm

Playing the Shiloh scenario, but can't tell if I've won or not. Do the accumulated victory points include objectives taken. For example, if I've taken Memphis (50 Points) do I add these points to the accumulated points ??

I believe they do, as i have noticed a jump in VP's in my games that would substantiate that. On the other hand, winning is a little different, as you need to capture "x" objective AND have "x" amount of VP's/Morale. At one point i thought it may not be WAD, i kicked butt, but i was a couple points below the required victory points listed under "objectives" in the ledger. The scenario objective didn't mention that.

You get bonus VP each turn if you hold objectives yes (and a one time boost on capture too).

In my limited experience, the game let's you know whether you've won or not, with an explicit pop-up. If you haven't gotten the pop-up yet, keep slugging on.

For Shiloh, just make sure you in addition to Memphis also get Corinth. The boost from both those cities should be enough to secure a win for you.
