OK, just had a game with Sevorin where I had a very big rules cunondrum.
Basically, the Hungering darkness (Ht3) used the Consume Brilliance pulse, he considered that 2 illuminated behind 2 flesh constructs were not required to test because although the illuminated are in LoS of the hungering darkness, the pulse zone is broken by the flesh constructs body and the Ht of pulses and auras does not go down. I always operated on the premise that you only needed LoS and to be within range, I never noticed that the Ht is as tall as the model, so I can understand why if Nicodem is in a Ht 2 structure he affects nothing that is Ht 2 or lower with his auras (even though it sounds absurd to me...) but I just don't finish understanding how a model can break the pulse/aura section with the body even if within line of sight.
Basically, could I get a rules page confirmation of what Sevorin was telling me? I checked the pulse rules but they just aren't clearing it up for me.

Any help would be appreciated.

All measurements in Malifaux are made from a top down view, this is regardless of the Ht of the objects being measured to/from. The Ht stat of a model does not affect whether it is within range of
