A few points of clarification:

A) Do any of the knights in the PK unit (except other PK) count as Followers (if the PK is leading) for purposes of the Bodyguard Bonus?
A.1) There seems to be a missing section titled "Insufficient Followers" mentioned in the Bodyguard Bonus result table.

B) A PK partial result against an enemy in the Melee Phase counts as a Loss or Tie? Say, Sir Aldwyn (Lance 17) rolls 7, and the saxon (Axe 17) rolls 10. Is this a tie or a loss?

C) In Step 3, Unit Maneuver, if Sir Aldwyn (Battle: 16) rolls a 7 and the Unit Intensity crits, does it mean that Sir Aldwyn can choose Stand vs. Two, Run Away or Pull Back, except the unit will be attacked by two different enemies instead of just one? Or is he forced to just Stand vs. Two?

Please, if at all possible, give book title and page numbers when possible.

Yes, they all count


A.1) There seems to be a missing section titled "Insufficient Followers" mentioned in the Bodyguard Bonus result table.

Will you give me a page number for that please?

That is a Loss


C) In Step 3, Unit Maneuver, if Sir Aldwyn (Battle: 16) rolls a 7 and the Unit Intensity crits, does it mean that Sir Aldwyn can choose Stand vs. Two, Run Away or Pull Back, except the unit will be attacked by two different enemies instead of just one? Or is he forced to just Stand vs. Two?
He can perform any allowed action, but will always fight two foes

The table 4-17 in question is on page 67. It mentions "Insufficient Followers". I found out the Insufficient Followers rule but it is an obscure passage in the 1-Page Reference Sheet on page 14. It should be in a more visibible space, like imediatelly after the table on page 67. :-)

Well, I think it ought to be in the "After the Battle" chapter, actually; with a reference to the proper page where mentioned on p 67.
And in the index, too.
Thanks for the heads up.
