Battle Of Palm Hill - Turn Nine

Situation after eight turns
Pharoah wins the dice-off (6-5, after a 4-4 draw) to see who goes first.
He immediately orders the Sherden to exit the battlefield. The unit is lost, but I have to remove two units of my own. This is because of a rule Neil Thomas uses to simulate the demoralising effect of an army having its camp and/or baggage pillaged. When an infantry unit, other than open-order light infantry, exits the battlefield on the enemy's side of the table, it is lost, but takes two enemy units with it.
I choose to give up my single-base Issacharites and the doomed auxiliary infantry beside the eastern rocky ground.
This reduces the Hebrew army to four units, and I will not be able to stop another Egyptian infantry unit exiting the northern edge of the battlefield, so I concede.
