Happens in PBEM campaigns, its actually quite difficult making an effective fighting withdrawal.

Seems somehow unfair, especially if there are not enough VP to give a victory and you are forced to destroy the enemy but he simply runs away and pushed the game into a draw.
Of course not the same amount of points like a destroyed unit would give but for a unit fleeing off map some points(let's say 25%) would be good.

That's just about what happens you get points for damage but you really need to kill it to get the full score.

Mopping up can add to your score and self esteem,but be wary of rear assets like rallied units and AA and AT guns.
