In the attached file can a unit at level one of the building labeled A see hexes 1 and 2 because of B10.2? Wouldn't level one building on a level one hill be treated the same as a level 2 hill?

B 23.72 clearly show that being at superior levels of a building on a hill is the same as being that number of levels higher than the hill's base level.
In your example, there is LOS to both hexes.
Note that the FFE will hinder fire against hex #1.

Ya know I read over that rule and didn't see the "at least" :shock:
So used to FRU instead of FRD.

While I'm on this thread it's really not a question for this section buy maybe someone has an answer with me starting another thread. How do you remove and change those FFE overlays in VASL?

Thanks y'all

Since the unit in building A has a full-level elevation advantage over the level 1 hill crestline, the hill does not form blind hexes in either 1 or 2 at range of less than 5 hexes. LOS is good.
