Game table lighting effects?

[heirodule]

So every mention of the game table thingy from WOTC makes a big deal about "lighting effects".

If I'm a player of a PC with low-light vision, will I get to see twice as far?

Will it auto-calculate miss chances when firing into shadowy illumination?

maybe to the first one, we dont know yet.

No to the second. The game table will have no rules adjudication built into it. You and your DM will still have to know that firing into shadows carries a miss chance.

The game table is exactly what the title suggests. It is an electronic table in your parents basement where you and some friends can gather to play a game where the DM adjudicates the rules. That's all it does.

What I wonder is:
Will there be tiles for out-door enviroment (where I probably don't need that much lightning effects, though shadows from trees and structures could be cool...

The latest video from the GamerZero interview showed a clip of the table using an outdoor setting.
