Hi all. Please help. First of all not great with pictures so if anyone can do a mock up that would help. Question is unit A is in an on going combat to front, unit B charges into flank of the enemy. At end of combat enemy is wiped out now following rules unit A can only reform. Unit B can overrun but which direction does it go. Unit A had more ranks, so if it's in same direction enemy would have fled it would go in direction unit A was facing. Or as wiped out does Unit B carry on in direction it's facing

If it's an Overrun, they run straight forward. That's why it's so popular getting units with frenzy to charge small units, then the small unit gets butchered and the frenzy unit has to Overrun (due to Frenzy rules), and will do so in whatever unpreferable direction the small unit was facing!

But yeah, unit B just keeps going forward.
