After experimentation:
Top right is a good position to start when doing Ekdromos service
Top left is impractical
Lower left is possible but I am of the opinion that was uncommon and the situations for its use even more uncomon-probably at the end of the battle.
Lower middle is rather uncommon but many of our members choose to advance with their hands at this level.
lower right is again common for attacking open order troops or fleeing enemies especially if toy are a rear ranker.
Kind regards
