A lot of games we play utilise WYSIWYG = what you see is
what you get; the effects are often WYSILOB = what you see is lots of bickering
Within our regular gaming group terrain and how it is handled
is not a subject of constant discussion but it is the subject of constant commentary.
Often containing one or more of the
following words – What!? - Rubbish! - Really? - Pointless! - Wanker! Depending on which rules are being used terrain
or scenery can either be as depicted by the ‘piece’ or it may confer an effect. A wood is a good example of this; does a wood
on a base mean that the whole base is wooded or just where the trees are located
on the base? This will lead to either or both
of these statements “I can see across the base but don’t have line of sight?
That’s a load of shi…”, “I can shoot across the base (WYSIWYG) as I have line
of sight, and you are not in cover Ha! In your face!”
