Can I shoot prisoners without a penalty? Are live prisoners more valuable than KIA's. What happens when I leave prisoners behind? Can they rejoin the fight?

No, you will lose the extra points for captured units. Yes, live prisoners give you extra victory points. POW's left behind (or left unguarded) can indeed be liberated or flee (the enemy would have to move other troops near the location of the POW's). They will rejoin the fight (i.e. can be controlled by the player who owned them earlier), but will be unarmed.
