That wasn't a bug, it was a design feature! hehehe... No, I really was trying to illustrate how easily anyone could fine-tune the odds to their liking just by applying tiny modifiers to that 1d6 roll.
For my own taste I'm actually inclined to go more extreme, with a -2 for attacks from the REAR and a +2 for attacks from a FRONT hex. It should be dang hard to overcome a surprise from the REAR. As to making it significantly easier to repel the attempt from the FRONT, that would just be to mollify all the naysayers in the "Adjudication" thread who looked at me askance for even allowing HTH to be attempted through the FRONT hex.
Nah, on second thought I'd stick with just the +1 <ducking for cover>
