So am I right on this one? Would just be interested, as we often play that differently.

I think you are, but put up some diagrams to confirm ??  or pictures ??

There are actually several more options, as pursuit has NO obligation to maximize frontage (as charge DOES).

No need to maximize but still a need to make at least some edge contact. If c2c is also a viable option shouldnt diagram 47.2 (and 47.5 for that matter) show a third option with the stand in c2c?

If I understand the question correctly the answer is "no". You can go into c2c contact only with your second or third stand (i.e not the first one) and only when no other move is possible to stay in the contact with retreating enemy.

"So long as at least one stand from their unit is already in
front edge contact, stands unable to move into front edge
to edge contact can be placed in front corner-to-corner
contact if circumstances permit, allowing them to fight in
the following round. A unit is not permitted to pursue if
it can only maintain contact by corner-to-corner contact
–at least one stand must have front edge to enemy edge
contact in order to pursue. See Diagram 48.1."
