Hello,

Under our understanding for the eleveation rules are that
a grounded figure is a non-flyer or in hovering mode.

Said grounded figures will not block line of fire from an elevated attacker, correct?

However, a soaring fig, no matter the elevation will 'always' block line of fire through their square, correct?

I know it doesn't make logical sense, but there seems to be very little exceptions for Soaring figs.

wes

ps.: will a stealthy fig in hindering terrain{ie: acts as blocking terrain} block line of fire from an elevated fig to others that pass through the square? I assume yes.

As far as I can tell, that is correct.... though I hope that another Judge will prove me wrong, since I loathe logical inconsistencies like this...

as for you p.s., that I know you are not correct about :)

LoF from elevated terrain is only affected by whatever is in the square the target is in. The Stealth figure does not actually act as blocking terrain, he is still a regular figure, just one that cannot have line of fire drawn to him while in hidering terrain.

Hope this helps-
