I've just finished the 3rd German scenario in the Campaign and got 325 points as I got all objectives by turn 9 (out of 10) - I was wuite chuffed with myself because it looked impossible to get them all at all! Then I noticed I got no prestige for the next scenario because I needed a minimum of 400 points!

Damn it!

True kudos to the devs. Simple mechanics, difficult scenarios and objectives and fantastic interface. Great game and a bargain at £25.

UoC is much more about skill than being a "puzzle game". If working on improving your skill is fun and you're making progress, then we did a good job.

Note that for "Fall Blau", you can check out Pieter's AAR. He's using an ahistorical approach there, but his notes are on the mark as usual.

Status: offline 		Hi Judge: fyi I got a Decisive victory in the 3rd game, I took all victory hexes by turn 7, but I got no pp either cause I didn't pay attention to the number of turns an objective must be taken before pp start decreasing.
That is definetely a new approach I hadn't seen before when calculating victory conditions, well done
