When moving from ground to the top of a roof, if I'm only moving from one physical square to the next square on paper, does that count as 3 movements? i know it was asked before but i'm hearing different things EVERY time. first i was told no, now yes. is it different for leap/climb? for fliers and hoverers?

also, is the batman team ability just plain old stealth? or is there some kind of twist to it? why didnt the PAC just say every team member has stealth, if it is just plain stealth? im wondering if they meant for it to be some other form of stealth.

thanks all.

if one square is ground and an adjacent square is roof it only takes 1 movement to get there but that ONLY if the charachter moving has leap/Climb or flies other wise they would need to use the stairs or be carried


also bats team ability is just stealth

as for the roofs, figure's that have leap/climb and are hover/flyes, They just go over it. And yes, The batman thing is just plain stealth.

What, like Gouda is another form of cheese? Cheese is cheese, and Stealth is stealth. Steath is not cheese, and cheese is not stealth. And how exactly would the Batman team ability be another form of stealth when the wording is EXACTLY THE SAME?!? The only difference between the Batman team ability and the stealth super power is that the Batman team ability cannot be outwitted, even if the hero is on open ground. This actually makes sense, in a weird way, as the Batman team ability is not a super power, it is the characters learned ability to blend into the shadows and hide extremely well. Compare this skill to Mystique's super power to shift her skin color to look like bushes...

One thing you all forgot to mention is Phasing.

From the FAQ:

"Phasing characters may change elevation during their movements with no additional cost to movement."

And the Batman Ally team ability works the same as Stealth but it is NOT Stealth, as Pandaro pointed out. Stealth can be Outwitted or lost after a few clix. Team Abilities cannot be Outwitted or lost ever. (barring any houserules)

Does that mean changing elevation ever costs a movement? Just for to go from hovering to soaring or vie versa right? Nothing else costs an additional movement then?

thanks.
