Memoir '44
If an enemy retreats next to a unit I ordered with Firefight, can that unit still attack?
The publisher quoted the official FAQ answer directly in the thread.

No. The unit loses its order. A unit ordered by Firefight may never target an adjacent enemy, so if a retreat leaves it adjacent before it fires, that order is lost. Likewise a retreat that frees a unit from an adjacent enemy does not make it eligible after the fact. One poster read the card text as allowing the unit to attack the adjacent enemy, but the official FAQ rejects it.
