Chain push and side step

Post by dreamscreator »

Just to confirm what we thought it was the correct sequence.

Player A push Player 1 into a Player 2 who has side step.

Which are the correct sequence?
-Push -Side Step -Follow Up
or
-Push -Follow Up -Side Step

We use the first one that feels the most logical but we can't find anything in the rulebook to confirm it.

If the correct is the second option, after the push, the side stepper can move to the space where was his mate and avoid the follow up. Looks weird to us that option but... just checking.

Yes, that was our understanding.
