Huh? Top armour attack missile fly right over the tank in some cases. 
If the missile was at 13" at the minimum, then it was never in 
engagement range. If it was an there was clear line of sight (and 
within 12") to the vehicle targeted by the missile then the missile 
is fair game. If not then the missile is not bothered by the ADS.

Whats the difference? I generally think that a unit will only 
surrender when there is a unit fairly close. If it takes fire and is 
at routed it probably just ceases to exist. Either way. The unit is 
gonegonegone.
