The designer said a leader that cannot evade is eliminated; the rulebook's leader sections agree.

He makes a one-die casualty check; a leader symbol kills him. If he survives he must evade 1 to 3 hexes toward his own side, before the attacker's momentum advance. Killing both the unit and the leader scores two banners. If he cannot evade at least one hex (impassable terrain) he is eliminated and the opponent scores a banner. Evading off the board edge is allowed and gives no banner.
