This weapon requires extra space to maneuver freely. If any horizontally adjacent space is considered blocked, you receive a -4 to hit. The ground is not considered 'adjacent' for purposes of this quality, and neither is the ceiling. A space is considered blocked if there is a permanent object which takes up enough of the square that movement is not allowed into it. Typically this is a wall or pillar, but statues or other map features may constitute a blocked space. Creatures or low terrain elements like tables or stairs (typically classed as rough terrain) do not cause a space to be treated as blocked. Impeded terrain may or may not be considered blocked, and the GM adjudicates all unusual cases.
