Jim how did you make TT look so young ?

Does a 1 - 3 without the objective taken in a FFA count as a defeat?

depends on whether the infantry can take the objective prior to holding it for a turn and whether you can remove them

so, no objective contested means draw, not a defeat. I know that was the way when it was the other way round...
