yes, its on top. Now in the movement phase will move to the center. Today 4 phases to shot
By the rules if it is the hex with the ladder during assault phase it can be considered climbed, so last assault phase it could have climbed the ladder into the center section.
Crossing Jungle hex seems different than scale a ladder in a 10m map. Jungle waste entire turn.
But HBF did the same that Wizards of the Coast (jungle hex)
Hey you do want you want if you think missing a movement turn and missing an assault phase is the same, climb on up the ladder during the movement phase and assault. Don't really care either way.
All that I will be said is the rules mention it that way for a reason.
A unit ending its movement adjacent to the Water Tower may move into it in the assault phase. Have sense wait only a single phase, not a whole turn. And scale ladder in movement or assault phase...Anyway
J5-J7 yes, we can ask
Ask who, I'm asking you what we want to do, either way works for me, if we can see each other I will assault, if we can't we will not.
