PaulofCthulhu2 0 Posted September 17, 2011 Hello everyone, This came up during a game today. Does the unit (spotter) inside the building have line of sight to the mech behind the corner? I asked this on the DT Facebook page and there were quite a few opinions. I realize that the tank trap isn't important as far as LOS goes, but how do the corner and the doorway effect this. If there is LOS, why? If there isn't why? Thanks, Paul Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Loophole Master 2 Posted September 18, 2011 Even if that building weren't there, the spotter still wouldn't have LOS. You can't connect the dots between him and the tank, the terrain square blocks the way. When you add the building, it becomes even more impossible, cause the small entrance narrows the field of view even more. Look at the picture below, the blue line connecting the spotter and the tank is interrupted by both the building entrance and the terrain square. The green line is the widest field of view the spotter has, the green squares are the ones he can see. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
