I have some more charge questions. Some I think I know the answer to, some not, but I'm not too clear on the whole thing and I'd rather ask than assume.

Say I have a unit in BtB with an enemy (enemy A) and there is another enemy close by (enemy B).

1. When I activate my unit, can I move around enemy A (not breaking contact) thereby taking me into BtB with both?

2. Would this count as a charge against enemy B, thereby granting me an AP?

3. If so, could I use this new AP to attack enemy A despite the actual charge having been against enemy B?

4. If this charge (or any move) took me in to the back arc of enemy A (still in BtB though), would enemy A get a free strike against my unit? I.e. would I have to spend that AP to dodge/ distract.

5. If I do dodge/ distract, can that count as a charge?

6. Do I get the charge bonus on all the weapons in the attack group I used when spending the charge bonus AP?

I brought this up to the development team, and we missed adding it for Genesis, so you

Ah, thanks, that's cleared it all up.

Oh - the rules say I can freely change facing if I have no enemy in my front arc. I take it I would not need a D/D roll for that? IS it only actual distances moved that require D/D?

If I have one enemy in my front arc and one behind - can I change facing in my activation so I have both in my front arc if I make a D/D?

No, you can't free spin when in BtB (if you could then St. John would be a horrible animal to attempt to take down ;) )
