what very important thing that EB is missing...

+1 in the 1%.

I don't fight to the last.

When I feel like losing (hehum, errr sometimes the AI makes me feel that way too, but it's another story) I get the hell out of Dodge to fight another day. But, like a doting father, I make sure all my units are safe and out of trouble before I quit.

once when I knew I was going to loose , instead of just telling them to retreat I just sent them running to the edge of the map... then I pressed W... and instead of jsut crossing the frikin' line they started running in every direction , wich eventully got them killed

You must bring them to "your" edge.

that's what I did... they ran to the enemy forces...got themselves killed, and then they returned to the line

Well, that beats my phalanxes running all over the place instead of lowering their pikes in front of cataphracts.

Thank you RTW for these well-timed "undocumented features"

ok, i asked my mod leader and he said the song is the property of DICE and EA, and is only allowed to use that song for BF2142 only.
sorry.

Count me among that "1"% of those who play until the end even when defeat. *grin*
I also continue to play when I win in order to try to kill running enemies (not very honorable, but who cares asd).

Btw, for solving the problem, I simply reintroduced the old defeat bgm of vanilla Rome in the soundtrack, since it's good and atmospheric, since I generally prefer the original scores (however I mantained the best EB tracks: some are really good, other ones are terribly boring for me; besides I added some other tracks from another game OST, but now I'm a little OT), since it perfectly fits the mood ofa defeat, since I really wanted any track to hear when I am defeated on the campaign map or on the battle map.

This proposed loss theme imho is nice but I'd prefer a more "dramatic" one, however.
