How does Jervis contradict the rulebook here? The rules never state
that a LOS is required either for Assaults or Firefights. In fact, I'm
thinking that somewhere in the Battles book it is stated that LOS is
not required for lending support during an assault. (I'll have to check.)
In any event, this definitely stays within the spirit of the rules for
no LOS needed during snapfire.
