I've tried to get a solid answer to this and have got differing responses.

The diagonal between blocking and hindering is considered to be _______ terrain.

Please fill in the blank.

Blocking for line of fire purposes. Does not affect adjacency.

Page 30 of the LoSH rules:
"A line of fire is considered to pass through hindering terrain if it passes through the diagonal of two diagonally adjacent squares that contain hindering terrain and any of the following: blocking, a character, or another piece of hindering terrain."

Clearly, the diagonal is considered hindering for LoF purposes.

Hope that helps.

Wow The Vision was right. Answers do vary.
I think I'd err on the side of Bret.

It IS hindering for LOF, and I believe I remember reading that it's clear for movement... although that may be old.

I stand corrected.

Page 29 of LoSH rulebook:
"Diagonally adjacent squares that contain hindering terrain are considered continuous hindering terrain. When a character moves from non-hindering terrain through the corner between two diagonally adjacent squares of hindering terrain, the continuous hindering terrain causes the character's movement to end in the square after crossing the corner."

Movement would also be considered as moving through hindering if one square was hindering and the other is blocking.

Hope that helps.

But where in the rulebook is this explained? The quote you used from pg. 29:

doesn't really say anything about this.

Amazing what people can learn when they actually read the rules, no?

It does not say specifically about crossing diagonal adjacent squares where one is hindering, and one is blocking for movement purposes. I just used common sense.

I followed the specific ruling for LoF, that I posted earlier that says it's ruled hindering for LoF, so I don't think it's a stretch to say it's hindering for movement as well.

I agree. Can anyone point this out? I can't access WK from here, so I can't see any of the errata/FAQ (which may be where it is). I scoured the rulebook, but it doesn't say specifically what happens between blocking and hindering for movement.

Reading? Really, who reads anything anymore!? (Where is the interrobang when you need one)

I only come here for the pictures; or that is what I tell my wife.

Like somehow flyers ignore everyone when they move?

Still haven't found that one... though, it would help if I hadn't lost my LOSH rulebook already...

Sorry Burleigh2, you are correct. It completely does not make any sense at all to me, but according to the General E&C under Terrain it says:
"Two squares of diagonally adjacent terrain that are not the smae type (such as a square of hindering and a square of blocking) are clear for movement purposes."

Wow, that is a very, very strange ruling .... but that is how it is officially ruled.
