I have a question regarding pile in moves, and just wanted some clarification. See the picture I attached to this message (I'll never get an art degree, that's for sure!) to make things easier to understand. The black dots are the models of the black team, the red dots the models of the red team. The combat is about to begin(charges have already been made), thus it's time for Pile-Ins. The Red player goes first.
The rules state (and I'm including the FAQ in this), that a model may only pile-in if its Pile-In move ends closer to the enemy model that was the closest model when the Pile-In move began.
So what I'm saying is that the enemy model that is initially the closest one when the Pile-In move begin, have to remain the closest one when the Pile-In move end, regardless of whether you get into base to base with any other enemy model or not.
So, let's say the Red player goes first. Even though his 3" Pile-In move could get him into combat, he's not allowed to make it, since it would take him further away from the initially closest model?

Is this correct?
Thank you!
