Well first game thew up a few questions, and one was we need to have some house rules to cover some situations. We will be using "templates" for BuA , unless yuo and your opponent agree not to before hand ofc and teh concept was accepted but "can you see out and be shot at anywhere within the template area. Having thought about it, i think the best way to deal with the template issue, Is to use the same rules as infantry on hills in Warmaster. So, If you are over halfway into the template, you can both be shot at/shoot out of BuA if you are less than halfway into template, you cant on both accounts. Is this an agreeable solution to most ? GO................................

or an easier rule would be If you are in ANYWHERE in the template, you can shoot out/be shot at, but obviously have the cover save if required. And building template blocks LoS to things behind the template itself
GO...................................

Currently sat reading the rules on site. Thought I’d have a look at this. What do you mean by BuA though?

Probably best to read the rules on structures again...

Guessing
BuA = Built Up Area

Well, reading that This is easy the large bases denote the area if you are in it, and can be seen you can be shot and get the cover, and can shoot out. If you are in it, and cannot be seen you cannot be shot, shoot out simples

If only it were that simple. It’s obstructing terrain (I.e. a forest) where you cannot shoot in or out if you are more than an inch from the edge. These apparently block line of sight to everything including titans (which makes no sense to me as a warlord or reaver would stick out of the trees like a sore thumb.), and confer the cover save (to a Titan? Give over). Will have to see how this plays imo or just not have any obstructing terrain I guess.

There should be easy house rules to write -- or just lift from AT

Obstructing terrain in rapid fire had a shadow so you could see after a distance but that varied depending on how high up you were.
It’s been simplified to make the game flow and to conceptualise units taking cover. That said I’d have no problem with titans firing at titans over woods
