Default Pole Weapons: Attack / Defense Question

So, if two figures are engaged, and the higher DX figure decides to disengage on his action phase, with a Spear, the other figure cannot attack with a normal weapon (say a Sword). Next turn the sword guy wins initiative and then moves the 1 hex to engage the spearman. Can he move the one hex and DEFEND instead of ATTACKING? This way, although the spearman gets a +2 DX to defend against the swordsman moving adjacent to him, and an extra die of damage (if he hits), the swordsman forces the spearman to use 4 dice instead of 3. But, if the swordsman just moves adjacent, and does not attack, does the spearman still get the +2 DX adjustment, and is the swordsman even allowed to move adjacent, and NOT attack (defend, instead)?

The rulebook does not break this down properly...
