Maybe someone can point me in the right direction to figure the following out. I have just gotten into designing scenarios for both CMBO and CMBB and I am confused on how victory determination is made. Recently some feedback on one of my scenarios "Rassenei" stated that.

I received a puzzling draw. I really felt I had accomplished the goal exiting all my men and vehicles except those few that I left behind to secure one of the two hilltop flags that I was supposed to capture and hold.
As the developer of the scenario it was the Axis objective to exit his units off the east edge of the map while also taking the two main hills along the way. So What I am asking ?? Are there any guidelines to how victory points are determined (large flag 300, small flag 100 I know) and what about causalities to infantry, armor, (it seems it is not always based upon unit strength) and how bout that all important exit of units....

I have searched all the old archives and have looked on CMHQ and others sites but I cannot find anything on the subject.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am trying to build the best scenarios I can, that are competitive, comprehensive, and most of all fun..

Thanx

Did you assign which units need to exit and those that did not?

Gonzo is right.
the most easiest way to let the player have a force at the map is by allowing some units to stay on it.
Dont forget to tell a player in the briefing.
In the editor its possible to do that.
Its the eligible and not eligible to exit button.

Thanx Guys

I guess I missed that when adjusting the individual units <thats called a "stunad" newbie> but with your input it will get better... Now for those 130 or so who downloaded it off the Depot... <oops> :eek:
