RTL and TOI - line of sight with trees!?

By edderkoppen, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

Pretend the webbings are trees on the new ToI large outdoor tile. This tile is used in some of the normal RTL dungeons, which means it is open for normal spawnings (ie. not reinforcements). Is it right to assume this is basically how a hero would be able to see, concerning spawns (I know I'm missing a few of the obvious lines, where there are no trees at all)??? I'm a little confused if you can see into the tree space or not. It does block line of sight according to the rulebook, but you can for certain see into the spaces when you are next to them, otherwise you couldn't attack figures there.

They block line of sight, as in the block line of sight from everything behind them, but you can see the tree space itself.

So you may spawn behind the tree, but may not on the tree.

Hope that helps.

Okies. It certainly helps! Well, not the heroes I suspect. The new Secret Garden rtl-quest seems extremely difficult to me. :D
