Battle Winner?

[ManateeGag]

I've read all the posts that have to do with Battles. I'm still confused.

When you get an event that triggers a battle (Not WAR), everyone plays their cards and does damage. Which player actually wins the mission points? Does it resolve the same as WAR, Attack, Speed, Diplomacy? If so, why is WAR specifically pointed out in Rule 3 on page 17 of the Rule Book?

The event cards that say "perform a battle" are War cards. They should say "War" in the small bar below the picture.
