Corner to Corner contact in the Movement Phase - Support or not ?

[Dirkhrod]

Hi guys,

another question. I am sure the answer is available, but was not able to find it (my search terms are probably wrong):

2 units are aligned, face to face, in combat. Another unit from side A moves into contact with the corner of the side B unit (happens when units are in contact side by side). Does the file in corner-to-corner contact with the enemy give support in combat ? Do they take part in the Melee phase ? Or is a charge needed to enter melee ?

I remember they do give support, but could not explain why today.

Many thanks,
Dan

Yes, they give support (6:G, page 81 PDF edition).
