I believe it has the choice if it is not impetuous, so long as it charges minimum distance.
The rules are very unclear on this. I have only found the diagram on page 44 to give any indication.
I th ...

I would say not only can they not move 5UD, they cannot even be placed on the table. Killed if the enemy pursues, otherwise captured, not that it makes any difference except perhaps in a campaign game ...

I think the rule is that you cannot conform from simple support to melee support for free, but otherwise you can conform if in contact. But I might be surprised.

I found the original discussion, here: https://www.artdelaguerre.fr/adlg/v3/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9085
It makes total sense; we just didn't remember it.

If a unit starts a turn both in front corne ...

The second bullet on page 20 seems pretty unambiguous.

The search function does not appear to be returning posts beyond a year or two back. I assume this is because the DB needs re-indexing of some sort. This gravely inhibits accessing answers to old ques ...

I'm not really understanding the concerns.
"As soon as possible" seems pretty clear. I suppose you might encounter a weird "shuffle puzzle" situation where a simpler and more comp ...

Steve, interesting idea and I can't say you are wrong. But as I see it, only bladed WWg are specified as having to pay 1 CP to optionally conform (in the errata). Artillery in non-melee non-support co ...

I recall an extensive discussion of this. I believe the outcome was that during a charge, you must prefer conforming into melee, i.e. B would conform to unit 2. However if this situation arises due to ...

I don't see any prohibition on conforming and then disengaging(?) I suppose the new position might prevent a disengagement, though.

I believe the disengagement group question was asked previously and the answer seemed to be any well-formed group could move back, regardless of combat state.

I believe the argument is not that 3 is not in support, but rather that 2 is, and because it is not necessary for it to stay there, it may move on. Then 3 is in support position and so in support.
I ...

Last time this was discussed, there seemed to be a consensus that this was allowed in V3 and would still be allowed.

At least with the English rules, page 60 asserts only the main unit is "in melee" and therefore a unit in melee support will turn to flank/rear because it is not "in melee".

Et après, B sera obligé de se conformer à son assaillant, donc il ne prendra plus X de flanc.
Non. En soutien de mêlée, B est considéré comme au combat sur son front et donc ne se conforme pa ...
