Good write-up. Seems like you're becoming an expert at defense. BTW you need only an 8:1 ratio to decisively beat the AI, not 10:1. Also it doesn't matter battle points-wise whether a tank's crew survives or not; if your tank is destroyed the opponent gets full credit for what it cost.

Abandoned vehicles (you can do it manually by hitting the "@" asterisk key and then hitting "Y" yes to the abandon query) are different. Sometimes you can avoid loss by ditching a crippled vehicle and shepherding the crew to safety. To claim points for an abandoned enemy vehicle, either kill the crew OR see to it that "the enemy vehicle was abandoned and not re-crewed and the battlefield is under your control.

You can also "destroy" abandoned vehicles by having any infantry unit stay in its hex for a turn.
