Programmer explanation: Easy. The map was modeled to "end" there, not to have a pit there. When it ends it acts like an obstacle because the "valid attack fields" algorithm won't even take it into account for pathfinding. Unlike SFI which does feature a pit, so it also can be shot across.


Logic explanation:

The base consists of a six-hex "circle". Since the top of it extends above the line, it looks like that spot actually is a pit and not the end of the map. Unless the bases aren't subject to the same boundary rules.
