In some, units may escape from a hex edge, in some a map edge, and in some "to" a specific direction.

Yes, "from" appears to be intended to be "from the map."

As I was noticing the similar odd wording for units and victory conditions, it occurred to me that this probably exists because the various scenarios come from disparate sources, where different writing styles prevailed throughout the years. Some are from G.E.V., some are from Shockwave, etc.

There just needs to be a general cleanup/unification/whatever of the wording for similar topics.
