I should have mentioned the track was the start of the Fort. Also it was in Battledamages game that this was mentioned and I thought it worth posting for clarification.
An all or nothing move is my type of tactic :-)

If the sallying element is destroyed, then the winning element pursues, if allowed, up to the edge of the Fort but does not enter. It could be argued that it came out through an open gate, and so should Be allowed to recoil back inside. However, it could also be argued perhaps more reasonably, that an element representing a military unit, streams out of the gate and then forms up into a combat line. It is this line that fights and must recoil against the walls of the fort not able to retreat through the gate in good order. Or as suggested, the gate has been closed.
In any event there is absolutely no reason to expect a sallying element to pursue the outside opponent if it wins, unless it is a pursuing type element in the first place.
Too bad that in such a high level of generalization game we have to worry about the minuscule aspects of the BUA. Is the gate open or closed. Does the threat zone extend from outside to inside the Fort? If an enemy element is at the side of the Fort, is The Garrison in its threat zone, such that the inside element cannot move outside, that is through the TZ of the external element/?
