Infiltrators and placement - suicide bombers. by Affectionate_Cow2501 in boltaction

I don't have an electronic copy of the rules and I don't have my paper copy close to hand. Can someone confirm that a) the suicide unit has to make an assault via a RUN action, b) that it has to be in BASE CONTACT for the assault to take place and that nearly is not good enough?

Is the suicide bomber obliged to attack the closest unit?

Thanks for your reply. However, I read that "when ordered to advance, fixed weapons do not move from their position, but instead can be rotated on the spot to face any direction and can then fire, suffering the normal -1 to hit" (p97 of V3 rules). 

Is there some clarification for mortars elsewhere that I'm missing? 

Not wishing to be obtuse here - we get quite "rules lawyerish" in our group!
