LoS to Markers beneath a model

[Csonti]

Can a model with a say 50 mm base standing on top fully on a 30 mm Marker draw LoS to that Marker?

 

Rules say any model's base will block LoS so strictly following this I would say no but who knows what am I missing.

This came up in our game relating to Widow Weaver web markers but goes for any markers? Please help

Well it's ht 0 and you are standing on it. So you can't draw los since models are blocking so yeah. Nothing amiss happened here. Same for web markers park a 40mm+ base on it don't can't see it.

So a model can block its own LOS?

I think the question is if an enemy model with a 50mm base stands on top of a web will it have the -1wp or not? I am certain that other models with in the aura will not -1wp as its blocking los.

[The Godlyness]

Well let's see what we have to work with.

A model always has los to itself.

A model counts as blocking

To draw los you make imaginary lines base To base and if they cross blocking it can't be seen.

Now I read the question as a friendly model was standing on it and an enemy model is not effected.

Now if your asking if an enemy is standing on it is it effected. Idk. On one hand it's standing on it I would think that means he sees it

I'm 100% sure that the question was the latter one:

[Csonti]

Yeah. I think my question was quite clear.

Since there is nothing between the model and the marker i'd say yes

[Kadeton]

Yeah, I see no reason why you wouldn't be able to draw LoS to the marker from the model covering it. No other models would be able to, though.

Neat trick for minimising the effect of Web markers.

Also for preventing Interacts...stand on the Scheme and even models that can Interact while Engaged can't Target the marker.

Mm, I've often stood on markers to prevent people getting into base contact with them, but I'd never thought about using that technique to block LoS from my own models. I usually just end up in a field of web markers and living with the consequences - this might help soften the blow.
