These line of sight rules are ridiculous.The new LOS rules are much less intuitive, create just as many judgment calls, and seem to require more calculations than the old ones.
Instead of one line (center to center), you have sixteen possible lines (each corner to each corner). This did not simplify LOS rules. It just gives an attacker more options for LOS. That's not simplification - it's actually the opposite.
Considering that tracing LOS is something you do, like, a hundred times a round, I'd rather trace just one line and see what it hits along the way.
As a "plain language rules lawyer", I'll keep using the official rules, because I'm not sure how changing these will disrupt balance. But I hope that FFG does something in the short term future.
Other than this, I do enjoy the new ruleset.
