Hey everyone,
I sent Ironduke an email (during the April Fools joke, I couldn't post), this was our conversation:
So my question is: shouldn't ships block line of fire? Sure, if you miss the ship in front, there's a chance you hit the ship behind.. but a 'hit' roll on the ship in front should nullify firing at ships behind, even if it was them you were targetting...
Specifically, let's the Terrans tried to fire at us through the Destroyer; shouldn't they have to "miss" the destoyer to get to us?

Question: Can we even “see” the Epees for an lock IR? Does the destroyer block our line-of-sight, or does it not matter?
-A
Other ships don't block line of sight or line of fire - only asteroid fields do at this time. So yes, locking on the Epees is possible!
