Hello,
I was playing Peacekeepers on Talent level. Standard rules were used.
I asked the Planetary Council to stand behind me as Supreme Leader and all factions agreed except the Believers who chose to defy the Council.
After the Believers' eradication, I expected the game to come to an end but it didn't. All remaining factions were in Pact with me. The game only ended later on when my Ascent to Trancendence secret project was completed (strangely, it counted as a Diplomatic victory instead of a Trancendence victory).
I reloaded the game to just before the Believers' defeat and cancelled the Ascent to Trancendence. This time to game went on indefinitely.
Checking Datalinks proved futile as all it said was that it is fairly suicidal for anyone to defy the Will of the Council.
How do I win a Diplomatic victory? Is there something I'm missing?
Justin

I have been having the same problem. In my game, I have 1 Pact (w/the Gaians), and two factions surrendered to me. However, the instructions specifically state that surrendered factions count as eliminated for purposes of winning the game. Since I only have 1 Pact Sister, why isn't the game ending?
Can anyone please help me with this?
