Assuming you meant 'can't', why not?
Why is this true for the main target but not for any other trooper affected by the attack?
You're soo close. In order to place the template you need LOF to the main target. In order to hit a trooper it needs to be within the template...
But LOF isn't required between the attacker and the blast focus, and the main target is only affected by the attack because they're in LOF of the...
Then how does the main target avoid the attack?
No, the Impact Template is a result of an attack. But even accepting your premise. You don't actually need LOF between the attacker and the...
Actually it's been useful: we've clearly narrowed down the agreement that the issue is whether it is the attack's LOF or the template's LOF that...
Yes to the first question. Usually expressed saying that they're all targets of the attack. ;) No to the second, there is only one LOF for the...
"I'm going to put both of these objects at this point" *proceeds to place both markers touching the same point* And why do you "have to assume...
No, the attack doesn't fail if there isn't LOF between between the blast focus and the DD. The DD is just unaffected. The only LOF that is...
They're not. But pretty much everyone will be running KHDs to clear away AHDs and you have a Hacker Lt.
No, the blast focus is not the LOF that matters. Otherwise the DD cannot block that LOF with Smoke even if he was the main target. The LOF that...
Just put them in the IC thread, it'll be fine.
Agreed... well except you need to block the LOF of the enemy attack not the LOF between the DD and the attacker. ;) Edit: For it to be a FTF you...
The assumption is that the DD has LOF to the attacker or, as you point out, the BS Attack fails at the first hurdle.
I think Tsyklons are a bad choice. At 34pts and Phys 10 you're most likely to be inside your DZ. Grenzers I'm mixed on, I've seen a Bolt link do...
We're also more "Fireteam Alpha" rather than "Squad Alpha" at the moment. :) So for combat ops we'll probably be leaning on NPCs to fill out the...
Competent but hardly a specialist. TN: 13, FOC:2 + Natural Engineer (a reroll). Compare this to his Extraplanetary: TN:16, FOC:2 + Meteor Head...
