When must a defender declare an evade, and does it have to move the full two hexes?

Declare the evade before the attacker rolls, so the attacker never sees the dice first. The defender must then take the full two hexes if both are available; a one-hex evade is only for when it is the only hex open. Both hexes must lead toward the unit's own side. A unit cannot pass through a friendly unit while evading, but it may stop in a hex holding a lone friendly leader and attach to him.
