Some questions on Scythed Chariots that arose recently
Combat Outcome : Rules state " Flee if shot at unless at least partly on their rear edge."
Fleeing : Rules state " It stops before completing its move and lines up if its front edge ( or front corner only ) contacts any of ....(b) friends it cannot pass through"
"If a friendly or enemy element prevents further movement by fleeing Elephants or Scythed Chariots, both elements are destroyed."
A Scythed Chariot was shot at by a Bw to its front receiving a Flee result, it turned 180 degrees and fled. The Flee Move could not be completed as it contacted a friendly elephant.
Not sure if the above flee rule re "both elements are destroyed" comes into effect immediately or next move if no movement is available after another Flee result ?
Another Scythed Chariot scored less but not doubled when shot at by a Bw whose front edge was partly to the rear of the chariot.
Does the chariot remain stationary ? Is the chariot destroyed ?
All replies appreciated

1. The destruction is immediate. 2. The Scythed Chariot is destroyed.

Why not the Elephant as well, Joe?

Why not the Elephant as well, Joe? Both the chariot & elephant are destroyed, "Destruction is immediate" refers to both elements. "If a friendly or enemy element prevents further movement by fleeing Elephants or Scythed Chariots, both elements are destroyed."
