I find that it actually helps to study the rule book as weird as it sounds. If you are having troubles getting the smaller details...

Not necissarily HAVE TO move 6". If all you want to move them is 3 inches then that is all you have to move them. If you wish to move 3" forward and then 3" to the right so long as you do not excede 6". Or what ever the max unit move is. Hope that helps.
