@The-Captain said in Winning the game: most common victory scenario:

What are the most common victory scenarios:

OOB G40 with no modifications, biddings or changes to the basic Set Up or game mechanisms OOB G40 with any kind of modifications, biddings and/or changes to the basic Set Up or game mechanisms

Is Victory most commonly achieved by:
a) A convincing Miltitary Victory (capturing Major Capitals and/or Victory Cities)
b) Economic Victory (one side has achieved such a high score of IPC that this eventually will bring Victory)
c) Surrender (either side surrenders due a hopeless Military or Economic Sitruation)

In any version i played so far, so either OOB, Tournament or other versions its almost always surrender. At a certain point you just see that either a major combat goes heavy against you and you cant recover back in time or you just messed up and are 2 far out of position.
