I remember bringing up an issue like this in the spring and it involved LF. I felt that at the time LF could always position themselves in a way so as to stop a BG of HF or MF from ever turning the exposed flank simply by placing itself in such a way that the HF must charge the LF to remove it and continue along its way. But I think it had to do with LH evading not LF but the same rules logic should still apply.

It was said I thought that you can declare your charge direction and not have to follow the evaders but instead make your charge direction in such a way as to either move in the direction you want to and or hit an enemy BG. You could also declare a charge on the LF but also the HF if you are in range, or make your direction of charge in such a way that you will hit the HF after the evaders evade. If they don't evade then you simply charge the LF.

I have always played it as above since the previous discussion and it seems to have worked out well.

Still this is interesting reading and I look forward to anything official coming out of it.
