The question of points for a ship that surrenders as the result of an explosion is a good one. I couldn't find anything in the rules about it. I propose the enemy should get full points because that ship is still out of the battle, regardless of the reason. Even if a friendly ship blew up and caused the surrender, it was damaged enough to be in that position by enemy fire.
Any thoughts?
Indeed ships can only explode if an enemy fires on them, so all ships eventually killed by the explosion are due to enemy firing. The question is: who, of all the enemies, should get the points?
One easy solution might be that the one who striked the exploding ship will also get points for ships killed by the explosion.
