I think that this topic has been beaten into the ground, but i can not get a straight answer. If you have stealth and are in Hindering Terrain, can someone base you and start attacking? I thought and was told at one point that if you are stealth and in hindering then no one can see you, therefore the only way to attack someone like this is if you have the ability to ignore stealh. Is this correct or not?

You are not correct.

You may close combat a character with stealth.

You may not use a ranged combat attack against a character with stealth unless there is a way to ignore stealth.

Thank you for the clarification.

You can punch a stealthed character, but not shoot him.

what about blades claws and fangs, w/ flurry?

Stealth
Any line of fire drawn to this character that crosses hindering terrain, including a square of hindering terrain occupied by this character, is blocked.


Lines of fire are the only thing Stealth is concerned with.

If it doesn't have a LOF component, then Stealth is completely irrelevent.

So when someone tries to tell you, "You can't attack him! He's Stealthed," ask them to show you where in the rules it says that what you are trying to do (BCF, Flurry, whatever) draws LOF.

(hint: if it is close combat, with some very rare corner cases coming from special powers, LOF will never be involved)

Ive always wondered if a character in hindering with stealth could be targeted and charged. Kinda seems like since he can't be see, he can't be charged.

Charge requires no LOF. Stealth has no effect.

And if someone has Stealth + Prob Contr they do not have LoF to themselves if they are on hindering terrain, unless they turn off stealth.
