    I was re-reading rules of movement, climb and so on.

    • Assume i have a large base (a S7 for example) that is in front of a wall ( a crumbled hous where only a wall stands up) touching it in base contact. The wall is shorter than the model silhouette, does this means he can "climb it" without spending movement and be on the other size jus measuring the distance traveled (assuming his thinkness is less than one inch)?

    • Assume i have a large base (a S7 for example) that is in front of a container touching it in base contact. The container is shorter than the model silhouette, does this means he can "climb it" without spending movement? And be on top of the container?

    • Same assumption of the container, but the vertical surface of the container is too short to be on top of it because is smaller than the S/ base but grater than one inch? The Model will be on top? After of it since he cannot stand on it?

    1 & 2 - yes.
    3 - you wouldn't be able to end the move there, as the base isn't supported.

    Note that in all cases the trooper will count as going up and over the obstacle for Line of Fire, even though you're only measuring the horizontal distance for movement.

    I don't know in other meta but in mine there is some level of tolerance with that, at least because most stairs have steps less large than 2.5cm and one of our table is made of lot of hill, with most par smaller than a S2 base

    If you have something like 90% of your base supported, most people I know won't say a thing.

    He cannot stand on him, so he goes after the Obstacle surpassing it without losing movemente going up and down but only measuring the horizzontal distance?

    Yes, and if the movement is not enough to clear the obstacle, it can't stay on top.

    Stair steps count as a diagonal surface, not a series of separate horizontal surfaces, so this doesn't apply to them.

    This.
