I finally got Perry's answers to a series of questions I asked a few weeks ago to clarify what happens when units moving as a stack do different things. Here they come.
Question 1. Several units are moving as a stack. Is it correct that one or more
of them can voluntarily leave the stack?
Perry: Yes.
If so, it is correct that the
units leaving the stack have to stop moving - they cannot pick up their
movement after the rest of the stack ends its movement?
Perry: Wrong.
Question 2. When several units are moving as a stack, can some declare Assault
Movement and not all of them?
Perry: Yes. ??
Question 3. Several concealed units are moving as a stack using Assault Movement.
If one of them performs a concealment loss action (say, laying a Smoke
grenade), do all of them lose concealment, or just the one performing
the action?
Perry: Not all.
Question 4. Several units are moving as a stack. One is a squad that tries to
place a Smoke grenade; it rolls a 6 and has to end its movement. Do the
other units in the stack also have to stop?
Perry: No.
Question 5. Several units are moving as a stack. Can two of them try to place a
Smoke grenade on the same MF expenditure? If so, does the second have to
announce the attempt before the first's dr?
Perry: Yes to both.
Does it have to announce which hex it is targeting before the first's dr?
Perry: No.
