[QUOTE="Celebrim, post: 6424344, member: 4937"] No, they are not. Or at least, not per the SRD, and so far as I can recall off the top of my head, not per the full player's handbook either. The Wall of Force description does not make one mention of them being a Line effect, nor does the SRD description of a Line Effect correspond to the effects of the wall. That's not something I'm finding in the rules anywhere. Nor does that correspond to the description of other wall spells that have a definite thickness. Wall of Ice for example has a definite thickness of 1" per caster level. It does not fill an entire 5' square. Yes, I see and have seen even before you showed me what you are imagining, but it's not the rules. Nor for that matter do I agree that D&D is a tactical skirmish game, nor do I agree that medium sized creatures are required by the rules to take up a 5' x 5' space. None of that is per the rules. Nor for that matter do I consent to your straw man characterization of my argument. Regardless how I feel about it, my point is based on the fact that you are adding to the rules things not found within them. It's not merely that you aren't adhering to the spirit of the law, or that I think the rules are wrong or unrealistic or something, but you aren't adhering to the letter of the law either. [/QUOTE]
