The Book of Bungalow (Exterior Play)

[A3n]

Definitely Yea from me.

[Tornado]

This passes.
What do we need here? Transit number on the map? On the Exit spaces?
The only thing is those numbers are meaningless when the base is used for Interior play.

Do we need to tag the CRB? Heroes?

Enclosed Structures Rules

MOVING THROUGH ENCLOSED STRUCTURES
If an enclosed structure has more than one marked Exit space, figures may use these to travel through the enclosed structure.

When a single spaced figure with a Height of 7 or less moves onto an unoccupied Exit space, you may place them onto any other unoccupied Exit space for that structure at a movement cost equal to that structure's Transit number. Figures placed this way will take any leaving engagement attacks.

The original version included a Height restriction as well. Do we want that or is Size enough?

Any Tiny, Small, Medium, or Large figure up to Height 7 that is occupying an Exit space may move to any empty, non-adjacent Exit space (or spaces, for double based figures) on or adjacent to the same enclosed structure, as long as moving into the second Exit space constitutes a legal move (i.e. if it is not occupied by an enemy figure, or by a friendly figure that is engaged).

Urban Building Rules

Urban Buildings
Buildings (Enclosed Structures and Interior Access Structures) are considered to be another kind of terrain piece. Buildings may be built on any normal terrain such as grass, sand, rock, etc. Buildings may not sit on water tiles or other tiles considered to have no height.

Hex Categorizations
In order to bring right-angled buildings to the hex-shaped C3G Battlefield, hex grid floorplans have been created for many of these buildings. In order to clarify figure interactions with these floorplans, three categories of hexes must be established: full hexes, half hexes, and partial hexes. Read on for more information about each category.

Full Hexes
Full Hexes are standard sized Heroscape hexes that are treated as normal spaces according to the game rules. A Full Hex is any tile space that a figure’s base will fit fully inside.

Half Hexes
A Half Hex is any tile space that a figure's base will not fit fully inside, but that an official Heroscape Wound Marker will fit fully inside.

Partial Hexes
A Partial Hex is any tile space that an official Wound Marker will not fit fully inside. Both Half Hexes and Partial Hexes are governed by special rules.

Disputed Hexes
In the case of a dispute on fit or on whether a figure's base is "officially-sized" or not, an official Heroscape base from the Marvel: the Conflict Begins Master Set can be used as a standard of measurement to determine whether a tile space is a Full Hex or Half Hex.

If the official base can fit fully inside of the disputed space, the Hex is a Full Hex. If the official base cannot fit fully inside of the disputed space, the Hex is either a Half Hex (if an official Wound Marker can fit fully inside the space) or a Partial Hex (if an official Wound Marker cannot fit fully inside the space).

Destructible Objects and Partial and Half Hexes
A destructible object can only occupy a Partial Hex or Half Hex if that destructible object is placed there (whether at the beginning of the game or through a special ability on an Army Card or glyph) and if that Destructible object can fit normally in that space (for specifics or any questions, address the Books of individual destructible objects).

Partial Hex Movement
Figures that are not destructible objects cannot occupy Partial Hexes, move into Partial Hexes, or be placed there by special powers on any Army Card or glyph.

Half Hex Movement
Figures that are not destructible objects cannot occupy Half Hexes. However, any figure can move through an unoccupied Half Hex, unless it would cause the moving figure to become engaged or any special power on any Army Card or glyph could cause a figure to end its movement in a Half Hex.

Half Hex Movement and Engagement
A figure that is engaged when it would begin its movement into a Half Hex is considered to be leaving that engagement and is therefore subject to leaving engagement attacks.

i.e. if Superman is engaged with Doctor Doom and Superman begins movement into a Half Hex, Doctor Doom can make a leaving engagement attack on Superman. This is true even if the Half Hex Superman is moving through is adjacent to Doctor Doom's space. In this way, moving through a Half Hex space is similar to beginning movement with the flying special ability.

Counting Partial and Half Hex Spaces for Special Powers
When counting spaces for special powers, such as flying or leaping movements over a certain number of spaces, or special attacks that affect a certain number of spaces, the simple rule is this: Partial Hexes should never be counted and Half Hexes should always be counted as one space each.

I think we might want to say "A single or double-spaced figure with a Height of 7 or less...."

That way we cover figures that are medium or large that are too tall and vehicles of more than 2 spaces. (We're OK with driving through the house, right?)

[Tornado]

Great question. Not unheard of I guess.

[IAmBatman]

Works for me. Then we have that standard to apply to interior play as well. Does that mean a flying figure of over 7 couldn't crash through the roof? Or would they just be unable to pass through the door once they're inside?

[quozl]

It would just be for passing through doors. I will think it hilarious when you drive into an apartment on the ground floor and then come out on the roof though.

Hmm, yeah, should we restrict it to single spaced figures so cars aren't driving through the house? I forgot they were Large.

[Tornado]

Was thinking about a single hex requirement as well.

[IAmBatman]

Yeah, a motorcycle riding up the stairs of an apartment complex is something that WOULD potentially happen in comics. A sports car doing it would not.
