Can a leader evade or retreat through a hex with a lone enemy leader or an enemy unit?
The designer ruled on lone leaders blocking retreat and attaching; the rulebook's Leader Escape section covers units.

A leader may not evade through a hex holding a lone enemy leader, but may escape through it, and that lone leader rolls no dice. A lone enemy leader also blocks a unit's retreat path. An evading leader may pass through enemy units only via the Leader Escape procedure, where each enemy unit rolls its normal dice and one leader symbol kills him. A lone friendly leader in a retreat or evade hex attaches to the unit and stops it there.
