I think I would allow the prone figure to attempt to crawl into one 
of the adjacent figures' hexes to engage that figure in HTH, or to 
engage the guy standing over him in HTH. Certainly the guy standing 
over him has no place to retreat to (since there are figures in all 
surrounding hexes), and an adjacent figure could have his "back to 
the wall" (or could permit the HTH).

Else, I agree with what's already been written. I've always noted the 
Prone +1 for crossbow shots - but never used it.

I would say "slung" shield is not doing any good for a prone figure. 
He's not a turtle, he's got legs and heads sticking out that could be 
hit easiry.
