And I'm still confused.  I just can't reconcile the 5th and 6th sentences of A20.21: "If the only adjacent armed enemy unit is in-Melee/berserk/vehicular, the broken unit must rout away (even if disrupted) or be eliminated for FTR.(5th sentence)"

Which is seemingly immediately contradicted by the 6th: "If the broken unit is also Disrupted, Encircled, or surrendering due to a Heat of Battle DR, it will instead rout to that enemy unit as its prisoner even if it had a legal rout path..."

I tend to agree with Pete but it still doesn't make sense to me.
