Here was the situation in last nights game:
5ft wide hallway, o's are empty spaces, X's the party, D is my dwarf and B is the bad guy.
.

o o o X D X X B o o
---------------------
So as you can see my dwarf was 15 feet away from the enemy, with two companions occupying the space between us. My dwarf has a movement speed of 30 (boots). For my action I moved forward through friendly occupied squares, struck the bad guy (with vital strike, but that doesn't really mean anything in this case) and moved back to my previous space ending my movement.
Noone disputed this, it was accepted but it got the back of my mind ticking away and I wanted to confirm if this is a legal action, or if we are going to house rule it.
Visually / Fluff ways the rest of the party are towering humans, so I could see a dwarf shouldering past their hips, striking and retreating back.
