Ok, question about terrain here: I know that if I have two diagonally adjacent hindering terrain, it counts as continuous hindering for line of sight and movement purposes. I know that if I have two diagonally adjacent blocking terrain, it counts as continous blocking for LOS and movement purposes.

I have read in Danger Room that a hindering and blocking diagonally adjacent counts as passing through hindering for LOS, but I am just now reading an errata (3/15/07) that says that hindering/blocking diagonally adjacent are considered clear for movement! How can this be possible? It seems to me like at best it would be moving through hindering. Does this mean that if i place a barrier diagonally adjacent to an object token, a grounded opponent of mine without L/C or Phasing can still move through the diagonal and ignore both the barrier and the object? This seems strange to me...

edit: oh, and does it matter if you are instead dealing with an object diagonally adjacent to a wall?

Where is this errata? I've not heard anything like this.

I d/l it from the Wizkids Website. It says "Official HeroClix Errata and Clarifications" dated March 2007. It was under the "How to Play" section, along with other possible downloads like the Danger Room rules, etc.

It might be strange... but then so are a lot of rules in this game.

Easiest way to explain the difference is simply this: LOF and movement are two totally different things. Just because the rules work one way for one of them does not mean the rules work the same way for the other.

Oh, and in case anyone is wondering, here's the E&C entry:

Two squares of diagonally adjacent terrain that are not the same type (such as a square of hindering and a square of blocking) are clear for movement purposes.

Oh poop, I was hoping I just read it wrong or something.
