Do terrain movement limits apply when taking ground (cliffs, forests, steep hills)?

The rulebook text covers this, and players on BGG read it the same way.

Yes. Terrain movement and battle restrictions still apply, so a unit that would need 2 movement points to climb a cliff cannot take ground onto it, and a unit that takes ground into a forest or town ends there without battling. One post argues taking ground ignores the two-move hill cost, but the rulebook text says restrictions apply.
