WALL HATCHWAY
A Hatchway terrain feature has two statuses: closed and open. It has two parts - an access point and a hatch -
and their traits depend upon the Hatchway’s status. Operatives can perform the Operate Hatch mission action to
change its status.

All parts of a Wall terrain feature have the HEAVY

and WALL traits. Some Walls include a HATCHWAY,
which is a separate terrain feature explained below.

WALL:
Operatives cannot move over or through Wall
terrain regardless of any other rules, other than as
a result of the Accessible trait.
Visibility lines cannot be drawn over or through Wall
terrain.
An operative is never a valid target if every Cover
line drawn to it crosses Wall terrain.
Distance cannot be measured over or through Wall
terrain; you must measure around it using the
shortest possible route (as shown in the diagram
below). However, measure distances to areas of the
killzone through walls (e.g. the centre of the killzone
or drop zones, but not objective markers or tokens).
Closed
Hatchways begin the battle closed. While a
Hatchway is closed:
Its hatch must be fully within its access point.
All parts of it have the HEAVY and WALL traits.
Open
While a Hatchway is open:
Its hatch must be fully open (it cannot be ajar).
Its access point has the Accessible trait.
Its hatch has the Wall trait.
Accessible: An operative can move through the Walls up to
adjacent to this access point as if they were not there, so long as
at least part of its base would move through this access point
when it does so (as shown in the diagrams below). An operative
cannot finish a move in or on an access point. As an operative
must finish a move in a location it can be placed, it must finish
the move wholly on one side or the other of this terrain feature.
Designer’s Note: An open Hatchway’s access point does not
provide Cover, nor is it Obscuring. The Walls either side of the
access point, or its hatch, must be used for this instead.

Accessible: An operative can move through the Walls up to

when it does so (as shown in the diagrams below). An operative
cannot finish a move in or on an access point. As an operative
must finish a move in a location it can be placed, it must finish
the move wholly on one side or the other of this terrain feature.
Designer’s Note: An open Hatchway’s access point does not
provide Cover, nor is it Obscuring. The Walls either side of the
access point, or its hatch, must be used for this instead.
