Charge, Advance & Pursuit Formations?

[trideau]

The rule book shows examples of a unit being able to move to the front and flanks of a unit that it pursues. 

Can a friendly (Unit-A) charge and/or advance an enemy (Unit-B) in the flank if its front is completely covered by stands from friendly (Unit-A)? 

Example: Unit-A 3 stands in column or row formation.  Unit-B 2 stands in row formation.  2 stands from Unit-A would move into the 2 stands of Unit-B leaving the last Unit-A stand to flank.

Hopefully I have done a good job of giving a visual of my question.

Hi!

If unit A charges or advances into unit B then you cannot put a stand in contact with Bs flank, only after the first round of combat (ie. when pursuing) are you allowed to place attacking stands of your unit into the flank.
