Reply to Ascension Victory behavior in Twilight of the Arnor GalCiv2 Forums

When I've seen this happen, it's been as follows. They're at 911 turns to win, have one ascension point, drop to 910 after a turn.

However, when I hit the "Turn" button to move to the next turn, the ships almost never move on their own. It'll still show the path they're taking and the estimate, but they just won't m
