Can an attacker destroy a fort from an adjacent space without besieging it first?
Rules 15.1 and 12.7 give the sequence, and the posts agree.

Yes. A fort can be attacked from an adjacent space (15.1.2). It is destroyed if the Loss Numbers eliminate any defending units and still reach the fort's Loss Factor (15.1.7). If the fort was occupied and survives, surviving full-strength attackers may advance and besiege it (12.7.6). If it was empty, they cannot advance unless it is destroyed (12.7.1).
