I hadn't realised the problem with a 3rd element in a column. It was just part of the original post but thanks for clearing the TZ thing up.
Ragards,

A new wrinkle on moving within a TZ occurred last night.
My Wb moved to a position 45 degrees relative to my opponent's column of 2 x Ax
The Wb's TZ extended over both elements of Ax
He wanted to contact my Wb with his front Ax - a legal move - but it was not clear what the rear Ax could do
He wanted to move it to the flank of the front Ax thus overlapping my Wb quoting p11 "to advance into or towards contact with such an enemy" but corner to corner does not meet that criteria, right?
Then he suggested the rear rank, as it was in column with the front rank, should follow it into combat, but I can't see any rule stating this
In the end, we went with only the 2 options of standing still or falling directly back. Was this right?
Regards,
j

Was this right? Regards, j If the rear rank Ax started in the TZ, then it must move to conform with the front of the Wb, line up with that element or move straight back. In other words, it must obey the same rules as the front rank Ax. P |

P So, it can, in effect, follow the front rank Ax, ending up in front to rear contact with it, as this would be seen as lining up with the TZing element without contacting it? j |

Yes. The FAQ actually covers this.
