Can you fight a minon, then cotinue your move?

Again, I apologize if this one may have been answered in the rulebook and I just missed it.

If you roll a certain number for your move, and there happens to be a minion in the path you wanted to take, I know that you have to fight the minion if you do enter that space. However, can you fight the minion and then continue your move if you succeed?

For example, say you roll a 6. On the path you wanted to take, there just so happens to be a minion in the very next space. Can you move the one, fight the minion, then if you kill it, move the remaining 5 spaces? Or does it simply end your move once you fight the minion, whether or not you win?

You movement would end. P.11:

Quote:Each Hero’s Turn is comprised of the following
three phases, which must be completed in order.
1. Move
2. Fight Enemies in your space
3. Take Actions

So, you would be able to take actions, but not move, as you'd moved from Phase 1 (movement) to Phase 2 (Fight).

Agreed. For further support: The third sentence in the section on page 11 titled Movement is "The only thing that stops a Hero’s movement is entering a space with a Minion that is already in play".

Thank you for the clarification. This is what I thought, but I was not sure. I read through the rulebook once, but have not had the chance to read through it all again. It is pretty long. LOL! But, I have actually been getting quite a few chances to play it lately, so I didn't want to have to be held back from playing it just because I had not yet re-read for the few things I was not sure about.
