Buildings and LoS

Hi all.

A call for suggestions. How do you handle LoS from a building with 1 floor (above ground floor).

If a unit is occupying said building and the building is next to a field surrounded by a hedge. Would you assume the troops inside, could see over the hedge into a nearby field? That is, would they see troopa crossing the field?

Thanks for the tips

Would you be able to see over the hedge in real life from that position? Then yes. Or just use a laser pointer to see if anything is in view, works too and saves you a discussion.

In most cases i would say yes, also it depend on the hight of the hedge. Like Gunbird i try to use realistic LOS, but in complex cases like bocage terrain we simplify things like saying only troops on the 2nd floor can seee over the bocage regardless of real LOS. Speeds up playing a lot..
