LOS BB18,2nd level to O12 ground RB

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This LOS came up last night while playing RB. I have a .50cal HMG/9-1 ldr/squad on the second level of hex BB18. I then noticed a stack of German infantry in hex O12(factory hex). I new I could see into the factory because of the roofless factory hex. We did agree that the LOS does exist and that's how we played it.
Problem is we are not 100% sure.
Does LOS exist YES or NO?

No

No LOS exists.

O5.43 allows LOS only into the first roofed ground level factory locations.

BB12 level 2 can see S14 but R13 and Q13 are blind hexes (S12 is treated as a hill crest) . It can see P12 ground level (1st roofed factory hex) and then it can not see any farther.

The O5.43 example makes this clear. The unit at O18L2 can see O15 but not O14.
