LOS through Blue Line Elivation Change

Hi all - just wondered how other people deal with the following.

Rules allow LOS through the Blue Elivation change lines - however i have adopted LOS can pass through multiple blue lines "IF" the "Tile Graphic" shows the elivation inbetween to be lower - so effectivly shooting over a sub level area - If the Graphic shows the elivation area to be higher then you can only shoot INTO the area and not through it.

None of this is in the rule book but just seems logical - obviously if shooting through an area range modifiers for defence die may come into effect.

 I play exactly the same way. It just makes sense to me to do it like this even though it''s not explicitly stated in the rulebook.

I was contemplating this as well. Though my thoughts were more along the lines of a attack/defense bonus depending on elevation. For example if you were to attack a locust from a higher elevation then you get an extra attack die. Then if a character is attacked from a lower elevation you get a bonus defense die.

Any thoughts on that and/or is anyone already doing this?
