Actually, none of those answers is fully correct. Rules are clear on most of this. A unit with charge orders may use PD, may snap fire with PD, and may use PD against the target of its charge, or against the charger if it was charged. Indeed, you could snap fire PD anywhere along your movement path. However, once it is engaged in CC the normal First Fire rules apply. So a unit in CC would only be able to use its' PD against another target if it is 2 size classes larger than the pinning unit. |

You can always FF with PD, even if you are in base contact. Alternatively you could snap fire as you move into base contact with no penalty. |
