Concerned about the scoring

Not sure if I played badly or if my armour was out matched by the Axis armour
The scoring system for this scenario is abit confusing in my opinion, but still a great scenario.
See comments regarding scoring - it would be good that the scenario notes are ammended to reflect that scoring is better determined by applying the rules in the manual and Windows calculator :)
Comments about broken scoring are 100% correct and takes the fun out of playing this scenario. Played mirror match with Baluka and in both games the Polish units were completely decimated yet we both ended with draws. Also this scenario is way too long could be cut short to 45 minutes with +/- of 10.
A very good, small scenario with a mix of objectives. My only suggestion would be to decrease the bonus points for each side as 1000 points seems excessive in a battle of this size.
Scoring is wonky ... hence all the draws!
