Hi everyone.....
I think I'm going to be using Trigon today at one of my venue's, and I just want to be clear on the new Great Size Ability:
From the new PAC:
Quote
GREAT SIZEThis character can’t be knocked back. When this character makes a close combat attack, it may target characters on higher elevations. This character ignores the effects of hindering terrain, elevated, and outdoor blocking terrain on movement and can move through squares adjacent to and occupied by smaller opposing characters. Smaller characters do not block line of fire to or from this character. This character may draw lines of fire (and have lines of fire drawn to it) as if the character occupied the elevation equal to or greater than the elevation it occupies, using the elevation level with the least restrictive line of fire. Characters with the combat symbol are smaller than those with the combat symbol who are smaller than ones with the symbol. This ability can’t be countered.
So I guess my main question is, Outdoor Blocking Terrain is considered for MOVEMENT purposes only.....does it BLOCK LoF to and from this character? The reason I ask is becasue Trigon gets Barrier as a free action, and I want to be sure he is proteceted.
While we're at it....can someone also explain that second to last line.....

Please and Thank you
Barrier will protect him. Any LoF that crosses blocking at his elevation is considered blocked. But another Colossalor Giant fig could choose elevation 2 and shoot across.

It didn't copy the symbols when you copy'd and pasted it should be boot, giant, and colossal before the word combat in that order.
