If they can have pictures, then I think a pop-up box with some pictures of what barrier shots can and can't work would go a long way toward easing confusion, and/or have it in the "Characters" section of the Help area.
They do have animations for things like conquering Wit Spaces, moving, fog of war and such things. Since this is a Sniper specific 'problem' it would be suited much better in the Help section if one would like to make such an exception (all the other units have one small paragraph of text to describe their function, no pictures).

The reason why the "bullets" can curve a bit is because it is a hexagonal map. I love hexagons.
Also would it make sense if the scalli sniper was "shooting", it makes even more sense with him

Wait. Can are bombshells affected by blind spots too?
If they are, i don't think they should be. Their artillery, not snipers. Artillery shoots over stuff, snipers shoot at it.

Nothing can shoot over enemies or objects.

Hmm. I think bombshell should be an exception, but that's just my opinion.

Someone explain this: the sniper is should be able to hit the base because snipers could shoot over empty spaces.

I agree the sniper should be able to hit the base from this position.
Itis very similar ti the spot on the northern shore between the bases on shark food island.

Good to know! Must be frustrating for you if that is a league match. Seems there is some inconsistency here....if OML does not want to be able to shoot across that barrier then they should put an obstacle there.

And just in case someone else wants to test SFI or Skullduggery (or however it's spelled..), don't. Because I just did and the ol' sniping bases over the gap still works there. I thought it might have been a fix in the update or something.. I don't know..
