Can a unit in 39P4 see 39H0? Do the crags come into play? Sorry for no picture, in mid game.

39p4 is at level three and is plateau-ed by the level three hill in 39o4 when trying to look at level zero in hex 39h0. That is ignoring the woods in 39o4, and the existence of that woods means that 39p4 can see no location (not even aerial) in 39h0. Also that LOS does not go over any crag at all. Surely you mean some other LOS. 39p4 to 39r0?

I think you will find that is hex m10 on board 37, not 39m0 (although, I suppose, it could be thought of the other way). In any case, crags are hindrances so they never block LOS except in large numbers. Crag is a half-level hindrance, so it would only affect LOS on same level or with a continuous slope. Neither applies here, so the crag does not hinder LOS from 39p4 to 37m10.

Thanks. We went back and forth a couple times but we eventually got it right it seems.
