    We had a discussion in a game today, Dwarf longbeards are locked in combat with the saurus warriors, steg and razordons charge in and obviously wins the combat.

    Now the rulebook says that the dwarves will flee from the most numerous enemy, which obviously is the saurus. Do they flee through the steg (taking dangerous terrain tests), and if i want to pursue, from what distance do i pursue, and can the steg even pursue being that it is facing the other way :S.

    You would flee directly away from the Saurus (most numerous ranked enemy) and if that takes you through another enemy then yes, they take a dangerous terrain test. All of your units can pursue, no matter the facing. All you need to do to cut down those longbeards is match or exceed his flee roll with any of your pursuers. (reference page 60 BRB)
