Posting a question here that originated on the
ScapeCon Map Contest thread.
Does placing a figure in your start zone before the game starts count as "moving" the figure? This question applies to at least 2 cases:
1) Molten lava in the start zone (would you have to roll a 20 during placement to survive?)
2) Does engagement strike trigger if the 2nd person places a figure next to a Nakita Agent?
It appears that OHS has a ruling that says initial placement does count as movement (meaning you must roll for lava and engagement strike), but Superfrog said he didn't believe that ruling came from the official rules. Is this in the official rules anywhere, and if not what would the GenCon ruling be?
