Simple change that serves as a halfway house between GW rules and ITC rules, both of which have their issues.
Models inside ruins can be shot at by models outside ruins, but line of sight can not be drawn through a ruin to units on the other side. So ruins block LOS and provide cover, but don't provide magic little boxes for artillery batteries to hide in all game

I proposed something similar which is simply going back to 4th edition for all area terrain. You can draw los into and out of area terrain, but not through or over.

Yeah that sounds fine. Exceptions for things like craters etc, but yeah.

We also use a modified rules for ruins where if you are "within" a ruin/area terrain there by claiming cover, LOS can be drawn from and to the unit. On the other hand, if you are outside the ruin/area terrain (and therefore no cover bonus) you cannot draw LOS through the terrain feature.

Huh. Yeah. I'm sure there would be some wonky edge cases, but that seems like a decent way to do it.

ATTENTION. Psychic tests are unfluffy. Your longing for AV is understandable but misguided. Your chapter doesn't need a separate codex. Doctrines should go away. Being a "troop" means nothing. This has been a cranky service announcement. You may now resume your regularly scheduled arguing.

Why don't you just use the rule from apocalypse?

These are my opinions. This is how I feel. Others may feel differently. This needs to be stated for some reason.
