Actually, I did:

I checked all the BoV maps and none of them have a large enough space for TBR to hide. Now only if he could teleport inside glaciers.

Actually, I like it the way it is. People probably would think you a jerk for doing it, but it is a teleport after all. Maybe this is a question for the Rules Team?

It definitely breaks the spirit of the game, but IF (big 'if' there...) you are allowed to move tiles to place a figure then it is still a legitimate move. This will definitely be the cause of a new FAQ entry, either about moving terrain to place figures or to limit his teleport to preserve the spirit of the game.

Some things simply don't need rulings at all. This is one of them...

Not that I'd ever exploit that in a game or design a map with that ability in mind, however. It is not a good idea to include in a map, but possible nonetheless.

Space under a mountain is not a "space".

It would help if you read the Glacier rules.


Glacier Mountains are towers of ice that block normal movement and line of sight. Figures may NOT LAND ON or move through Glacier Mountains.

As I can tell,the hexes under the glaciers when on the map are solid. There for a figure can't Teleport there.

Sure they can be. As long as there is an overhang with a hex underneath it is a space, regardless of how you can enter.

So it needs to be ambiguous?

Yes, a second post.

I believe you and I are imagining different things. Suppose I build a column seemingly out of 7 hex tiles but hollow like so:

777
6 6
5 5
4 4
3 3
2 2 T
111111111


The numbers represent each hex and its corresponding level; T is TBR. TBR should be able to enter the column, right? Is there a difference if this were an entire mountain? He should be able to enter unless there are certain restrictions such as there are against entering glaciers.

777
6 6
5 5
4 4
3 3
2T2
111111111

I personally think it would be a useful tactic, if you were ahead on points and TBR is your only unit. I would laugh so hard.

2) My Zombie Pit problem exactly.

Zombie Pit - Above View

Zombie Pit - Side View

Without moving any tiles, Tul-Bak-Ra decends into the pit and then escapes through the walls to a safe unaccessable tile.

This is so easily fixed.

"All open hexes outside the pit on level 1 are not playable and are used for map support"

Done.
