More questions

We are now playing our first battle and have some new questions:
Page 38, last right bullet.” A unit can turn to face in any direction but otherwise remains stationary and in the same formation”. Even in extended line or march column? A large unit in extended line that makes a 90º changes of face has its corner bases moving (in 28mm) 24 cm (6MU) forward and backward. A unit in march column pivots in the middle, which seem really odd , instead of wheeling it front base to the side and follow with the rest of the column.
page 42 Disordered units must past A CMT to “Intercept an enemy assault move without expending a Command point” .Don’t you need to spend a command point to pass the CMT?
A large infantry unit in extended line is assaulted frontally by a large cavalry in one rank covering roughly all his front. After the CT the infantry unit stand and fires. Does it fires as two units i.e with 16 dices! (Plus in our case +2 for an artillery attachment, and 3 for flank support: an artillery and infantry unit for a total of 21)
Self support ,a large unit can support himself forming a deeper tactical formation, (page 57) does them gain an additional dice and his opponents lost one dice in combat?
Pass through. A steady cavalry unit in contact with an infantry unit, after combat, pass through it and them makes a move (D6+2). I assume that it will hit any enemy unit behind the original infantry unit. So that’s a new assault, If that second unit is also infantry: t must it make a CT if not in square, lost a cohesion level if the cavalry (after being placed behind the original infantry unit) start moving less that 2MU away, and finally can it make defensive fire ?
Thanks in advance
