Aircraft LOS
by smirkweasel on Sat May 03, 2008 6:17 pm
I made a mistake in the last tournament on a Aircraft LOS question.
Intervening terrain does not block aircraft LOS in FOW. If the target
of the aircraft's attack is within 4" of the terrain, the aircraft treats
the target as if it was concealed and adds +1 to the number it
needs to range in.
Turns out the terrain in question was not intervening anyway.
Intervening terrain does affect anti aircraft fire.

Sorry, I just saw this post or I would have responded sooner. You are correct but the rule actually states.(don't have it with me going from memory) That if you are within 4 inches and the terrain in intervening. example:
If the target platoon is within 4 inches of woods and the woods is between the target and the airplanes you would get concealment.
But if the target platoon is within 4 inches of woods but the woods arent between the target and the planes ( ie the woods are behind the target and the planes and target are in front of the woods. You would not therefore get the concealment.
If the target platoon is within 4 inches of woods and the woods is between the target and the airplanes you would get concealment.
