May the High Warden pile away from base contact combats?

[Groje]

The High Warden does not need to pile in to the closest model but 6 inch to any enemy and needs to end within 0,5 of any enemy model. 

In FAQ it is stated for models in base contact no pile in at all is allowed, does it cancel the High Wardens ability ?

Yes/no.
I would say no, because the pile-in move requires you move toward the closest enemy model.
The 'lock' explained in the FAQ is because if you are already in B2B, you cannot by definition move closer to the closest model, so you therefore cannot make a legal pile-in move so you can't move.

The High Warden's ability to pile-in overrides the closest enemy element of the pile-in conditions, so that no longer applies to whether you can move.

However, if the FAQ is taken as an absolute condition instead of an explanation, then yes it does prevent you moving.

Discuss with opponent.
