Soapy 4 Posted January 30, 2015 Hi guys! We started the campaign today and this situation occured: If I apply the line of sight rule as I understood it from the rulebook the stormtrooper has line of sight on Gaarkhan. My girlfriend, who played the Rebels, was like: "Yeah, sure. You can shoot through walls now?" So Line of Sight: yes or no? If not, why? 2 Fizz and player1823837 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nungunz 221 Posted January 30, 2015 You have LOS to both Fenn and Gharken because you can draw uninterrupted lines as you have in the above image 1 Soapy reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
player26506 26 Posted January 30, 2015 yes, legal line of sight. you can perfectly draw 2 non intersected lines from one corner in stormtrooper space to 2 adjacent corners of the target's space 1 Soapy reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
player1823837 174 Posted January 30, 2015 You have line of sight as per example and rules in LTP p. 6 AND the examples laid out on p. 26 in the RRG. Written rules on p. 16 of RRG do not object to your example. Line-of-sight CAN be traced through an open corner. 1 Soapy reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hida77 951 Posted January 30, 2015 Yes, it was in LOS. See the back of the Rules Reference Guide (RRG) for several examples. This is not the weirdest example. You are not shooting through the wall, the stormy is leaning to the left and shooting around it. 1 Soapy reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soapy 4 Posted January 30, 2015 Alright, thank you guys! But I can understand her point. It's a weird shot considering the figure placement. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hida77 951 Posted January 30, 2015 Alright, thank you guys! But I can understand her point. It's a weird shot considering the figure placement. In all minis games it helps to not look at the table and think "this is exactly what is happening". It is a game where the figures represent an abstraction of a general situation. If you think of it that way, this completely makes sense. The two rebels are coming into the hallway intersection and the stormy is deliberately looking around the corner for them. How would we represent that on a 2-d board? Exactly what you took a picture of. 1 Soapy reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
