Can a unit on a ridge shoot over units or rocks on lower ground?
The rulebook's ridge line of sight rule applies only when both units stand on ridges.

No, unless the target is also on a ridge. Between a ridge unit and a lower-ground target, normal line of sight applies, so a nearer unit or rock blocks the shot. Only two units both standing on ridges ignore lower-ground blockers, and then only units on ridges and seracs block the line.
