    At 1:09:00, the squad of infantry firing with the Plasma gun, you shouldn't have lost that model that rolled the 1, you have full hit rerolls from "Take Aim!" Solid game, always good to see IG hold their own.

    Good afternoon,
    Someone with whom I’ve been playing 40k with and I have been having a heated debate about a rule since the introduction of 9th edition and I was hoping you could shed some light for us. The rule in question is about obscuring terrain. The way I read the rule is that it doesn’t matter what the physical item used for this terrain is, as long as it has the obscuring keyword, it can’t be fired through (unless you’re inside the foot print of the structure). In my opinion, this allows people to use anything they have lying around the house as terrain. The issue is with games workshop terrain pieces. Some have grating that you can physically see through. I feel like this just adds flavor to the piece. The person I’ve been playing with claims that line of sight trumps everything. If I can see the head of my Necron unit through a tiny hole, allowing him to shoot through or be shot at, what is the point of key words? In summation, does the physical appearance of the terrain piece have any bearing, or is it just the key word used to describe it?
    Thanks for the help

    • @GrabT3hLantern
      @GrabT3hLantern 2 роки тому

      AFAIK 40k doesn't actually use true line of sight, which means that grates, windows, or any other holes in terrain are irrelevant when it comes to actually determining line of sight. If the obstacle is said to be obscuring, it blocks line of sight through it, period.

    • @HUNTERKILLER20001
      @HUNTERKILLER20001 2 роки тому +1

      Obscuring blocks all line of sight unless you're inside the terrain piece, in which case it's true LOS.

    Alright, so I'm super late to the party here, so I don't know if anyone's gonna pick up on this, but by what rule do Skari's LR Demolishers get 2D6 shots with their Demolisher Cannons (38:18+)?
    To clarify, he's firing the LRD with Melta's at the pylon, uses the "Hail Of Fire" Strat, which makes random number of shots max shots, but rolls 12d6, which would imply he gets 2d6 shots with it base.
