Yes, 1/58. However the D&D line (MS3 and waves 11-13) are closer to 25mm or 1/64, which is why Craig Van Ness tried to get WotC not to reuse the sculpts.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

If a figure begins his turn on a road space, climbs up and over an adjacent battlement to end his turn on the road, does he get the +3 movement bonus? The only time he is not on the road, is while he is "climbing" the battlement. I would assume so, but could understand why he would not.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

He's on the road the whole way, so he gets the bonus. He had to climb to stay on the road, but he never left it.

Honestly, that's what we assumed, but wanted to clarify before we came to that point in the game.

Were I to climb something that height, both feet and arms would be used, and I'd lose my personal road bonus. ��

Unless he used a ladder to climb. Sometimes it is worth it to ignore an available ladder to take advantage of the road bonus. (Yeah, I know you can't attach ladders to battlements. Just wanted to make the point.)

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

Figures must stop on a glyph if they move on to it. Is this still true if a figure you control occupies the glyph?

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

I believe that you cannot move through your own figures on glyphs, as you would have to stop on the glyph. In the same way that you cannot use a figure in water to let another figure go over the water. I've got nothing official for this view though.

I'm a little hazy on it...but I do believe that is correct.

Correct. The references (from the D&D rulebook):

Movement (page 8 )
Passing and landing on other figures: You can move through a space with a friendly figure on it (one of your own or a teammate's) unless the figure is engaged (see Engagement Rules on page 11). You can't move through a space with an opponent's figure on it, or end your move on a space with any other figure.

Glyphs (page 14 )
When one of your figures moves onto a Glyph that is symbol-side up, stop there and turn the Glyph power-side up; the powers on the Glyph take effect immediately. When your figure lands on a power-side up Glyph, it must stop. Note: A double-space figure must stop when its leading side moves onto a Glyph.

This only applies to Power Glyphs, not Treasure Glyphs.

Re: Question Dump: Post Your Questions Here.

Hmm... That second bit raises a question for double spaced figures landing on glyphs. If approaching a glyph from a different level, would the double-spaced figure be able to move one "past" the glyph in order to be legally placed, or would it have to approach the glyph from a same-level space?

I would assume so, since you MUST place your figure in a space it fits.

Officially, I believe you do not get to keep moving, even to flatten your double-spacer. But, as a player I'd never enforce that. I would leave this open to your opponent/TD.
