During our first game a variation of the following situation came up (There wasn't actually a spearman unit looking like that, but it it's equivalent in other units which made it clear to me and my opponent that the golem would move exactly into the gap between the lancer and a friendly unit,):
Starting from situation in the first picture (A.jpg), the the Carrion Lancer does a shift and disengages leaving a 1 tray hole between it and the spearmen resulting in the second picture(B.jpg).
Then the Rune Golem charges using a move 2.
Would the Rune golem end up doing a successful charge as in picture 3(1.jpg) a successful charge as in picture 4(2.jpg), or failing to charge as in picture 5(3.jpg)?
If I interpret the rules correctly as soon as the front corner of the Rune Golem is in contact with the corner of the Carrion Lancer there is a Collision (18) and there would be a Squaring Off resulting in the situation in the thid picture, and a successful charge. Possibly 77.2 of the Squaring Off rules would make the fourth picture a legal option as well?
Or is the last picture correct and the golem fails to charge but ends up engaged with the Carrion Lancer on its flank?
