Hey - I don't bite (although there was that time...)

This all started with me looking at the rules and noticing that in order to
attack a titan you had to engage the feet (unless you're a skimmer etc) and
asking why ground troops weren't pinned by contact with the titans base.

Anyway, you can't get to the feet if you "stop moving immediately".

Hence the "discussion"
