The discussion was about the following : A TUG moves forward, shifts 1/2 a base to avoid a friendly unit and the player wanted to shift a whole line of immobile infantry as well so as to make space .
Not being in a melee situation and conforming it seemed illegal .
I seem to remember it might have been possible years agon in another beta version so I'll admit I hesitate .
I found nothing in the rules to allow this
So what's the right answer ?
Assuming I've understood the situation you are correct; there is nothing allowing displacement of non-SUGs* unless it is due to alignment of files for combat.
* and displacement of SUGs refers to "a friendly SUG" (my emphasis).
OK thank you that's what I tought
