I know there is probably an obvious answer to this, but I couldn't find it. If 2 friendly warjacks (let's say A has beat back and B doesn't) are in BtB with an enemy warjackandbeat back triggers the warjack to leave .5 inches of warjack B, does a free strike occur? What if the first one knocks it out 1.4 inches, and the second 2.4 inches, if warjack B has one weapon w/ reach and one weapon w/ out reach?

Free strikes only trigger when a model advances (hordes p 51). So if you push your opponent there is no free strike for the other units. However, be aware that your advancing might trigger free strikes on your own model.

Leo has it.

The model getting whacked isn't advancing so it doesn't suffer free strikes, but the model doing the whacking might when it advances 1" from Beatback.

Basically, there is no way you can make your opponent's models suffer a free strike because you were moving them somehow.
