If I use barrier to encase a character without leap/climb, can an adjacent friendly flying character with phasing move that character out?

Also, which rules should we be using? Are the new indy clix the definitive rule set now?

Thanks!

Indy isn't "official" until Oct. 15. Of course, the judge may be using them now anyway.

In answer to your first question, no, because the barrier is blocking terrain, and thus figures next to the "trapped" character are not adjacent.

The figures are still adjacent because they are in squares next to eachother. It doesnt matter that there are two barriers there. The rule you aare thinking of only applies when you need to draw LOF which you dont if you are adfacent to someone.

1 - Fig One
2 - Flyer
X - Barrier
C - clear terrain

ccx1cc
cc2xcc
ccccxc
cccccx

as far as I understand it 1& 2 are no longer adjacent thus the flyer can not carry fig 1

Ill check the rules or call my friend, but im pretty sure they are still adjacent.

Check the glossary definition of adjacent squares---they are not adjacent if on opposite sides of blocking terrain. And really, that's to be expected. Would you want figures separated by a wall to be capable of close combat against each other?

Now that i think about it that makes sence. I guess sometimes Wizkids rules do make sence in real life (as real as comics get anyways).

These characters are not adjacent. If a barrier is erected in two squares diagonal and adjacent to each other, it is implied that a solid wall is erected on the diagonal between these two squares. Close combat attacks, ranged attacks, and any other action that requires the juxtaposition of two characters cannot be carried out if the two characters are separated by the diagonal line connecting two adjacent squares of blocking terrain.

Did that sound official enough?
