Imagine you're fighting a Madrugar. You hit it enough times that it is forced to retreat. Its pilot, knowing he's never going to make any headway against all that AV, decides to recall and try a different tac. You didn't get your kill, but this pops up

Or something, I dunno. The point is, you were awarded for your role in removing the threat, even though you weren't able to get the kill. I feel this would complement the vehicle damage warpoints that are supposed to be returning. Basically, everyone who applied damage and/or eWar effects would get part of the bonus for driving the vehicle off the map.
As vehicles become more common and vehicle vs vehicle fights become normal I feel this is especially important. You can't field mid-range quality vehicles, lose three, and still turn a profit like you can with dropsuits. When vehicle heavy teams go up against each other people are going to have to resort to recalling a lot. We shouldn't be screwing people because they won a fight, but couldn't deliver the killing blow. |

This is literally the thing that burns me most. Most maps as infantry AV I'm not mobile enough to hound a retreating tank or ds for a sure kill, as they can punch it around corners and recall. I had a tank pull underneath me on a high point, turn his hardeners on and recall before I fully was aware he was doing it. He then proceeded to gun me down on foot, saving himself a tank and costing me an AV fit at around 120k. There does need to be a bit more gratification for sacrificing risk, isk and points to be a glorified highway patrol |

Nice idea, it would have to be only if he/she recalls it though as the process of vehicle calling/recalling is tracked. what would also have to be done is the points would have to be given to the person how did the most damage, assist for the second most (also tracked)
