Core Rule

A model has line of sight to a target if it can draw a valid unobstructed line to the target according to the normal visibility rules.

Visibility

  • A model is visible if it is not fully obscured according to the terrain and battlefield rules.
  • A target must be visible where a rule requires line of sight.

Obstruction

  • Terrain, models, or effects may block line of sight where the relevant battlefield rules state so.
  • If line of sight is blocked, the target is not visible for rules that require visibility.

Notes

  • This file defines visibility and line of sight only.
  • Shooting and other attack rules may require line of sight, but do not define it.
  • Engagement is defined in core/general/engagement.md.
