One of the interesting situations that came up at Kubla Con was a case where a routing unit (turned 90 deg to the line of battle) ran into the fight behind it, simultaneously making front edge to side edge contact with both a friendly and enemy unit. The rule is that a routing unit is immediately picked up when it contacts an enemy unit. The question was: does it also cause a KaB test on the friendly unit it contacted? I had my strongly held opinion, having nothing to do with who owned that friendly unit ::) but agreed to pose the question on the forums. Does a routing unit that contacts the edge of a friendly unit but otherwise does not interpenetrate it cause a KaB test on it?
Twp comments:
1. Routers are removed after pursuits, not immediately (9.7 B.3 page 165)
2. Routers meeting friends causes a KaB test where appropriate. (9.7 B.6 page 166). Unfortunately 1) the reference (8.8B is wrong) and 2) 9.8B (the intended reference) doesn't mention them - it only mentions units being burst through.
So my view is that if the routing unit does not burst through there is no KaB test.
