Yes — after each Fellowship Progress counter move, whether made by a Character die or by an Event card that moves the Fellowship, the Shadow makes a Hunt roll. The Shadow rolls one die per Shadow die in the Hunt Box (maximum five), hitting on 6. If the Fellowship does not move there is no Hunt and the Hunt Box dice are wasted for that turn.
