An OBA situation which occurred in an ongoing playing of RO6. My opponent also referenced a discussion previously held on this thread. We had our theories, but couldn't find that an "official" resolution had been reached.

C1.32 states that:

"For Observer-LOS purposes, the Blast Height (visible effect) of a SR rises from the Base Level of its hex through the next two higher levels [EXC: a SR that lands Offboard has no Blast Height]; see the first 1.62 EX. The Blast Height of a FFE is the same [EXC: that of a WP FFE rises through the next four higher levels]...."

Q1: Does "through the next two higher Levels" mean that a Ground Level SR/FFE rises up TO Level 2, but not beyond (say, to Level 2.5)?

Yes.

Q2: See the C1.62 example where the SR falls into W3. If the W4 woods were a continuation of the 2nd-level hill and there was a wall between W4-W5, would there be LOS from the Observer to the SR Blast Height?

No; blocked by wall.
