Put simply can models with Flight and/or Incorporeal move through a flame wall?
I was under the impression you could not do this but this was ruled against me at a tournament this weekend
So i wanted to see if my interpretation is right and i believe it is for the following reasons
For reference a Flame Wall markers are Ht 5 and have the blocking and impassable traits
A Marker does not count as terrain (Page 56 of the mini rulebook)
A model can move over and stop on Markers. A Marker is ignored for movement purposes (but terrain below the Marker is not). (Page 64)
However i think the impassable rule trumps the above bit
Impassable - Models cannot enter impassable areas of terrain, which includes moving through the walls of a building or into other solid objects.
Flight rules are as
Flight: This model is immune to falling damage and may ignore any terrain or models while moving.
As a marker is not specifically mentioned as NOT terrain, i believe flight would not ignore it and so doesnt work here
Incorporeal rules as
Incorporeal: This model ignores, and is ignored by, other models and terrain during any movement or push. Reduce all damage this model suffers from Sh and Ml Attack Actions by half.
Again for the same reason as Flight, this rule does not mention markers and so you dont get to move through them
Any thoughts? i guess you can say Impassable specifically mentions terrain in its description which the marker is not, so does the impassable not work at all? and if it DOES work does that make the markers terrain and thus the above 2 rules would ignore them?
