The game is designed in the AI code to move SPAA forwards with the troops, to give the forward troops AA cover.

Does covering other SPAAs count?

hmmmhhmmm.. that might be it. It where generally short battles, around 15 turns - is "end game" a %tage of total turns or a fixed number?
If it considers "8 turns before end" endgame, that would result in some strange behaviour in battles only 14 turns long
