If the Orcs attack Frodo or Pippin, can the character retreat before the Orcs' instant defeat applies?
The rulebook lets a character with a retreat ability retreat before the Orcs' ability resolves, and limits Pippin's retreat to when he attacks.

Frodo can retreat sideways before the Orcs' text is resolved, so he is not defeated by it. Pippin can only retreat when he is the attacker, so a lone Pippin attacked by the Orcs is defeated.
