When a call is encountered does the program go immediately to the subroutine or wait until the end of the main program and then run the subroutine? If I have an unconditional subroutine call, will this execute the subroutine just as if the subroutine was in the main program? Will asynchronous instructions such as MRX and MWX work correctly? Do timers work correctly? Do edge contacts always work?

The subroutine will execute at the point of the call. As far as the other stuff, if the subroutine is called continuously those instructions should behave just as if they were in the main program section. If called conditionally there could be problems.
