Academy game question: The win condition says that "the...

Academy game question:
The win condition says that "the battle is won when one commander captures 60 planets". It is missing the phrase: "and hold them for 5 consecutive turns". In my older academy games, I had to hold the 60 planets for 5 turns. Has that changed?

I hope it has changed, that sounds better. If it is different, please request that fact be added to Documentation for us; http://help.planets.nu/academy

Hopefully you get an answer.

Thanks, Glyn. I hope so, too. It is quite important for some tactics, especially playing a cloaking race.

There has been no change. You still must go through the countdown. Probably the description generator just needs an update to include the "5 turns part". This wording is the same for all 0-ally games.

The academy documentation contains no reference to win conditions. As that documentation describes differences from normal games, this means that the same win conditions apply, which is what Big Beefer wrote. Based on this, I see no need to update the documentation.

On the other hand, the game description could probably use a minor adjustment.

Heh. Just checking; came to the same conclusion. On the gripping hand, though -- I've got nothing like enough time for any adjusting.

Ah, well; at least this one's a paying gig. :o)
