Villagers block movement and line of sight but is that line of sight like rubble or line of sight like monsters and heroes for the purposes of spawning?

We played dungeon 27 and kept a hero back by the villagers and treated the villagers like monsters and heroes for line of sight but I feel the mission was a little to easy and should have treated the line of sight blocking like rubble.

The FAQ clarifies that villagers are figures, so you can't spawn behind them.

Thanks for the clarifications, Im glad we didn't cheat the overlord as it would have changed how that dungeon when immensly

I definitely need to bring the FAQ with me next time.
