Firing down trench lines


Recommended Posts

In CMSF trenches were actually in the terrain mesh which made them natuarally provide cover via LOF blocking from most directions, but they were not subject to FOW and thus viewable by an opponent who scans the map. One could, however, fire down one end of a trench line and naturally hit the occupants more easily.

My questions then, are these. In CMBN, do the above ground fortifications still block LOF, or do they just increase the chance that an on-target "hit" will actually count as a "miss"? Also, would one standing on one end of a trench line firing down it have better chances of hitting the occupants, as one would in CMSF, or is the hit "chance" the same regardless of where the shooter is standing?
