It is possible to do with a win condition pack. But you would have to write a new win condition where having no HQ dosent resolve in losing the match. Because if you would do it without your own win condition your game would have ended as soon as your game started.

Well, there is no step by step tutorial on your problem. The only tutorial there is on how to set up the win condition pack.

But if you follow the tutorial I prepared a simple code to make the game to run even when you have no HQ.

This is for the .win file.

Code

name = "<yourModName>"
scar_file = "data:scar/winconditions/<yourScarFileName>.scar"
fe_name = "<yourModName>"
fe_priority = 0
score_display = time
show_time = true
entity_replacements =
{
	{
		original = "victory_point",
		replacement = "territory_point_mp",
	}
}
starting_building_replacements =
{
    {
        original = "bunker",
        replacement = "",
    },
    {
        original = "default_mp",
        starting_buildings =
	{
		{
                	race = "west_german",
                	building = "",
                	starting_squads =
                	{
                		"",
                	},
            	},
            	{
                	race = "german",
                	building = "",
                	starting_squads =
                	{
                   		"",
               		},
            	},
            	{
                	race = "soviet",
                	building = "",
                	starting_squads =
                	{
				"",
                	},
            	},
		{
                	race = "aef",
                	building = "",
			starting_squads =
                	{
                    		"",
                	},
            	},
		{
			race = "british",
			building = "",
			starting_squads =
			{
				"",
			},
		},
	},
    }
}

This will remove all bunkers, HQs and starting squads.

And this is how your .scar file should look.

Code

import("ScarUtil.scar")
import("Fatalities/Fatalities.scar")

local function WinCondition_Init()
	
end

Scar_AddInit(WinCondition_Init)

Basically, if you build this mod and play it with it your HQs will be removed and there is no winning condition so the game would last forever.

So if you would like to create your own winning condition I can recommend this SCAR documentation where you can find all the functions you can use in your code.

I hope this helped. If you have any further questions I will be happy to answer them.
