Arkham Horror
Can you avoid a monster's attack when you are engaged with it in the Monster Attack step?
The Monster Phase steps say engaged monsters attack in step two, and the evade action disengages them.

No. An engaged monster hits you in the Monster Attack step unless an asset or effect specifically prevents the damage. Evading it earlier, in the action phase, is the usual way to avoid its attack.
