RE: Which counts more ...
I play for fun but in a tournament I tend to play to win. I watch the replays closer in a tourney and make notes. I do not usually do this when playing just for the fun of it.
Also did the opponent use and exit hex or just pull his units off the map. If an exit hex was used I find that fair play and reflective of a retreat. If he just pulled his units off the board to keep you from getting points I find that "chicken S&*T" and unsportsmanlike. Hard to say for sure though without knowing all the facts.
An exit hex should not need to be defended. By nature of being and design it is a place to get your units off the map and get points doing so. That can be in blowing past the objectives to reach a predetermined point in a predeterimined time or to obtain a strategic retreat. When a scn has an exit hex it is part of the strategic and tactical decision points on what you need to do to win.
