So does a model firing a gun emplacement need to stand in front of the gun so it can see, or is LOS drawn from the gun? Also, if a model is firing behind the gun emplacement, would the target get a cover save, as the target would not be wholly in LOS for the firing model? It says on pg. 105. that the weapon emplacement follows the normal rules for shooting. There is nothting about drawing distance from the gun or how LOS works if a model is behind it firing. There's just a notion that a model behind the gun emplacement receives a 4+ cover save. And do you measure distance from the firing model, or from the gun? It says int the BRB that a model can fire it instead of his own weapon, so if a model is firing it, do you draw distance from it and not from the firing model?
so to summarize:
a) does a model need to stand in front of a gun emplacement for the firing model to have TLOS?
b) If a model is firing a gun emplacement from behind it, does the target, if partly obscured by the gun emplacement, receive a cover save?
c) do you measure distance from the firing model, or from the gun emplacement?
