Wicked dolls and their intentions

[Korrosion]

Do enemy models which have failed their wicked intentions def duel count as having a melee range of 0 fur purposes of determining what, if anything, they are engaged with?

For example if my opponents Witchling Handler fails the test can my wicked dolls walk away without suffering from disengaging strikes?

I don't see anything under Wicked Intentions to support this (in the Rising Powers entry). Also, the Rules Manual doesn't say that a disengaging Strike counts as an Action. I would say no; unless Wicked Intentions substantially changed on the card, it does not Paralyze the model or last beyond that model's activation. Handler gets to try and stop you walking away.

I missed the part at the end where it says, "...during that activation." That should me for not reading to the end of the abilities rules... :-)

Thanks for the help Alex!
