Post subject:  Don't like win/lose during turn

Hi to everybody.

I've just switched from MA boxed to MAN 2.
After a couple of game against the AI, I started my first game against a real player.

As you can see in the replay, I lost in the second round, because DURING the turn I left a country to the opponent.
It was only a temporary move, using the transport to bring my 2 tanks in my country, destroy the opponent tank (so regaining my leadership on the country) and then leaving the transport in the other country.
In this way I would have regained leadership on my country, and in 2 rounds gain the other country.

Now that I learned in the hard way that it's possible to win or lose during the round, I can say that I don't like winning or losing during the round.
It completely destroy the planning and the undo of this game.

In my example, I could have taken one tank at a time, leaving always something in the other country.

So, if you decide to keep winning/losing DURING the round instead at the END of the round, at least put an UNDO option.
A message like "attention, in this way you will lose, ok or undo?"

I just lost without warning. :(

Thanks for listening, and bye.

I watched the replay. I take it the "Defeat" box just popped up not allowing you to continue your turn. Yeah, I'd be a bit upset too.
