Melee question on HTH - Page 2

Melee pages 6 and 7: No options for a disengaged figure to enter HTH,
but engaged option o has HTH at the turn to act.

Page 8: May move into the hex for HTH then stops, but also stops once engaged.

Page 18: "A disengaged figure picks option (b) to initiate HTH combat; he moves onto the enemy’s hex during movement and attacks during combat." (Needs to be added to ITL errata for ITL page 116 to clarify that "If the attacking figure is disengaged, this is a regular move." means a charge attack and not a full move)

So if a wolf, elf, giant bird or other fowl beast runs around and enters through a side or rear hex the "defense against the HTH attack" roll is applied during movement and "6" results are rerolled, correct?

If the attacker attempts to enter through a front hex their movement stops and they have to use option (o) to attempt HTH at their turn to act and "6" rolls apply.
