So I spent several hours beating a part of the campaign (preventive diplomacy) on elite. The best strategy I found is killing everything on the map by myself because the AI is worthless, but nevermind that. I'm a cheap bastard and have decided to beat this shitty campaign before I buy another game (before you ask why I am playing this shit which is a very good question). So back to the point, I finally clear the area and get the mission completed screen. Only to get killed a few seconds later by an enemy who magically doesn't count. Not a big deal as I've only spent several hours re-adjusting to the idiosyncrasies of this abomination of a game, I can beat the mission again in a few tries I hope, but it's the slap in the face of being lied to that hurts the most.
