Does a monster in a pit block line of sight, and what can a figure in a pit attack?

The rulebook limits line of sight for figures in pits, but the blocking ruling is a hedged developer opinion that other posters dispute.

Probably not. A developer ruling quoted in a thread says a monster in a pit does not block line of sight to figures behind it, since figures in a pit are seen only by adjacent figures. The developer called the justification thin, and some players say it departs from the letter of the rules. A figure in a pit can attack anything it has line of sight to, which means adjacent figures only.
