I just got done with a gigantic siege game (!!!) over the weekend, and I was hoping to clarify the rules regarding crumble across multiple units in the same combat.

My opponent had a horde unit of high elf swordmasters, and I had charged in a unit of zombies and a unit of skeletons. As far as I understand that is considered one combat across those three units. Therefore when he won combat (which he predictably did, by 16), my units crumble by 16. However the book seems to imply that BOTH my units take 16 additional wounds. Seems odd to me though, since each unit only lost by half that amount. It seems more reasonable to me to distribute those wounds across both units, but I'm willing to bet that's not the case. If it really is 16 for both units then Holy Hell I am not charging two core units into the same combat again.

This is correct. Each unit crumbles by sixteen.

Zombies are good for tarpitting enemies that you don't want to fight, but you do not want them involved in a fight featuring any other units.
 
Yup, both units would take 16 additional wounds from that combat. Multiple combats kill VC like no other, especially if there were zombies involved. Never get anything stuck in combat that zombies or skellies are also a part of.

Edit: Ninja'd!!
