break away and attacking

I read this ruling from Wiz kids:
WK Ruling

Would Plasticity stop a character using Hypersonic Speed from making an attack or moving afterwards (pending breakaway)?

No. If a character has to stop during it's first movement during Hypersonic Speed, it may still make the attack after the movement ends (if able). It may then use its second movement breaking away if required and then recalculating it's speed value .

Now this went against my current understanding about how break away works. The venue I play at says that if you fail break away, that ends the action, and you don't get to attack. Is that wrong for charge as well?

Quote

from Breaking away, pg 11:
...If a character failed to break away, that move immediately
resolves. For the rest of that action or that special
triggered effect, that character can’t move or make an
attack or be given actions “at no cost”.

Quote

HYPERSONIC SPEED BREAKAWAY +2. POWER: Halve range, , :0. Move, then
make an attack, then move up to ‘your speed value minus the number of squares just moved’.

Quote

CHARGE Can’t be knocked back. POWER: Halve speed. Move, then CLOSE: at no cost.

Are we treating HSS as 3 separate actions ? The wording isn't very different from Charge. Is Charge considered 2 actions now?

The ruling you refer to doesn't involve breakaway. It states that, if your movement is stopped by becoming adjacent to a character with plasticity, you still get to attack. If this was not so, Plasticity characters would be impossible to charge.
