Knights get +2 the turn they charge.
If a unit wins combat and overruns into a new unit it counts as a charge the following turn.
If they get charged by a third unit will they benefit from +2 no matter where they allocate the attacks?

That's a fun one, but RAW I would say yes. The rules for lances state that they work if the wielder charged into combat. The Knights did technically charge in your example, so I would say that they still get to use their lances regardless of who they attack. I think it's the same as if your Knights charged an Empire Regimental unit and then got counter-charged by a Detachment, I'd say the Knights get to use their lances against the Regiment and the Detachment.

Yes. The rule even refers to a lance's S bonus.
BRB p. 58: "In the following turn's combat phase, the pursuers will still count as charging. This might result in both sides having charging units in the same fight, in which case the charging units on both sides will get the normal bonuses conferred by charging (e.g. causing impact hits, benefiting from a lance's Strength bonus, etc., and other bonuses described later in this Rules section). Also, both sides will get the +1 combat resolution bonus, which will effectively cancel each other out."
BRB p. 90: "A lance is only used in a turn in which the wielder charged into combat. In subsequent turns (or if the wielder did not charge) the model uses its hand weapon."
Unless specified otherwise,
- All R&F models in a unit must use the same weapon.
- If you have a special CC weapon, you must use this instead of your hand weapon.
- You get +2 S when using the lance (a special CC weapon)
- You use the lance in the turn you charge
- This also applies to the CC from a charge as a result of pursuit/overrun
As it is not specified otherwise, all R&F models in the unit must use the lance in the turn they charge (including pursuit/overrun) and will therefore get +2S in any CC (front, flanks and rear) they are involved in.
