  1. There is no Clambering anymore, just Climbing
     
    Climbing, normally only Trooper base (Slotted base, no) figures can climb.
     
    Climbing needs to be used when trying to move through Obstacles that are taller than the Trooper silhouette.
     
    "To perform a climb, a unit performs a move as normal, except
    that it must use the speed-1 tool. A miniature may move a
    vertical distance up to height 1 when making a climb and may
    place the movement tool overlapping obstacle terrain that is
    taller than the height of the moving unit’s silhouette."
    Does this speed-1 restriction apply to both Open and Difficult Obstacles? Or only to Difficult?
     
    What about climbing DOWN from a tall obstacle? Normal speed or speed-1?
     
    Climbing can be done to height 1.
     
    Expert Climber can climb to height 2.
     
    Scale can climb to height 2, and does not reduce speed if climbing Difficult. So when climbing, use full speed or still only speed-1?
     
    "Jump X: The unit performs a move action as normal and can ignore or end its movement on top of terrain that is height X or lower. While performing a move with the Jump X action, a unit ignores the effects of difficult terrain and other miniatures with a height equal to or lower than X. When a unit performs the Jump X action, measure height from that unit’s starting position." Um, what about Impassable? Can or can not jump over or onto?
     
    Impassable Obstacles can not be climbed unless unit has special rule to do so. In the rules, Repulsor Vehicles can move over Impassable terrain, but does not say if there is a height restriction.
     
  2. A building is an Obstacle, and can be either Open, Difficult or Impassable.

    Open building, no movement penalty to move through. 

    Difficult, movement penalty to move through.

    Impassable, no movement through allowed. 

    If an obstacle is taller than a unit's silhouette, it can climb on the obstacle (can only climb onto Impassable obstacle if it has special ability to do so).

    Any building taller than a AT-ST (or any ground vehicle), it can not go through or onto.

    Open building, lower than the top of a AT-ST's hull, the AT-ST can walk through or onto with no penalty?

    Difficult building, lower than the top of a AT-ST's hull, the AT-ST can walk through or onto with speed reduced by 1 to minimum speed 1?

    Impassable building, lower or taller than the AT-ST, the AT-ST can not walk through or onto.

  3. The rules for the silhouettes say place the side with the white mark touching the base. According to this, the picture shows the slotted base silhouette on it's side and the trooper base silhouette to be upside down. When oriented in this manner, the slotted base silhouette is the same width as the trooper silhouette, but almost half again as tall. Should the slotted base silhouette width be the diameter of the base? As for height, this makes a E-Web blaster team taller than a Stormtrooper squad - are the crew standing on boxes?
