Light woods

[campsawyer]

What I find strange is that when the target is in it, it is in limiting terrain and can only be spotted from 3 hexes. Yet, if the target is behind it, in an open hex, but covered by the whole of the light wood hex, then, despite the +1 DF advantage, you can still see these guys from 12 hexes away.

I guess I could rationalize this by saying that when you are in the terrain you can take advantage of rocks, stumps, trees, shrubs, etc. So you have to be close to see them. Units beyond the single light woods hex can be seen as they are in the "Open".
