Military defeat in multiplayer?

Hello

So me and a buddy of mine were playing a mupltiplayer game of Sins Trinity 1.011 tonight and something I do not undertsand happened. We were playing a 3v3v4 (me and him and ai on one team and ai on the other two teams). After we had taken over our solar system we went on to other systems. We fought a pretty large battle where I lost some of my forces and my military standing fell to 6th and I got a "military defeat" dialogue. Even though there was an option for me to continue playing I could not control any of my units anymore. I was not actually defeated and my empire was hardly in a bad place militarily/economically, I was in last place mainly because I took allot of casualties in a battle. I was wodnering if there is a way to turn this off or what would cause it in the first place? It doesnt make sense for me to be defeated when I was perfectly capable of rebuilding my fleet and keep going. Can you guys suggest any way to fix this?

 

Thank you all in advance :)

The only way to have a military defeat is to lose all your planets as far as I know. Not sure why that happened unless your connection dropped at the right time, then rehooked just in time for you to finish watching the game. Or a really odd case of de-synch.

Maybe it has something to do with having an AI on the team?
