View Full Version : Odd Cease fire

I was playing GD420220, a Michael Dorosh scenario (excellent), and on turn 28 against the AI I suddenly I got a "Both sides have agreed upon a cease fire". I had a morale of 76% and the AI 56%, and I had plenty of ammo left and was on my way to taking the VL's. Pretty annoying given how much manouvering I did to get into a good assault position. This is with version 1.03.

Any good reason why this would happen?

It would seem you accidentally selected the "Ceasefire" button.

Even if you are SURE you did not . . . you pretty much must have.

I have done this, as well. :(

Is that a ME, probe, attack or assault?

How much ammunition did both sides have left when the battle ended?

All my units had ammo, the least was 3, with most units having between 15-30 units of ammo left. Only one unit was panicked. The scenario is "Regiments Die Ten Times" and is a German attack.
As for hitting the cease fire button by accident, I don't think I did as the little confirmation screen comes up. I did reload the ending turn and try selecting a ceasefire and pressing "no" to confirm, which maybe cancels it if I did by accident(? does it?) but the game still ended.

It's an assualt. Gpig is probably right.

I started again from turn 16, and again got a cease fire on turn 28 - I definitely didn't hit the cease fire button between 16 and 28 this time.

Very curious.

How peculiar. Did you lose identical units or did you play it differently?

Have you checked the autosave file? If it is still there, see if the ceasefire button is depressed. If so, uncheck it.

Hi,

I have recently played this scenario with Andreas and it did the same and called a ceasefire just as I was about to swamp Andreas.

We did not press the button and it was more likley / acceptable in our game as the Russian moral was very low.

In fact I was surprised it was not an Auto Surrender.

As for Nick if he says he did not press CF and it takes a two step process to do so, please stop saying he pressed it as it is a bit poor to question him on this.

I will see if I have the saved file of my game and see if it meets teh mutal CF rules as I did not really check it and just went ho hum.

BTW a good scenario for doing an Infantry only attack. You should review it at the Scenario Depot

I'm glad to see I'm not crazy and that it happened to someone else. The fact that it called a ceasefire and not a surrender sort of ruins the scenario, as I was about to win (probably) and got a minor defeat because the russkies had control of the two VL's

Nick,

Send the save file to me and I can look at it.

I will then compare it with mine.
