Point 1) You would only get partial points if the tank was not destroyed, and your opponent wins.

If the tank is destroyed and they bail, or you put someone in the hex and so the broken tank gets flamed, you will get the full points. Also you will get full points for a wrecked tank at end game if you win (tank will show destroyed, not as abandoned in the end game review).

Point 2 & 3 - stands if playing a PBEM campaign and its core. Not versus AI which has no core.

However - killing crew adds to the points total (each man you kill adds 1 damage point) and extra kills are always good for raising your unit's experience especially if the unit has less than 5 on its scorecard.

They are worth shooting up on general principles if you have spare shots, or if you think they will return to re-crew (e,g, if arty causes a mortar crew to run away, chase it down with your arty if you still can see it, saves that mortar returning to the battle later)
