LoS with bunkers on hills in Expert mode

Hi everyone,
I've trying to build some scenarios with large plateaus and the bunkers on hills do not block LoS when they are empty. Is there a way to fix this in expert mode? or do I just have to live with it?
Thanks,
Geoff

I cover all the stuff that's not supported, and some how-to's for what is....
Also, there's a forum for Memoir'44 Online to discuss Online stuff.

Yes, I checked the wikispaces website. It says that "sometimes empty bunkers on hills do not block LoS". I was hoping to get more details on when the "sometimes" occurs and if anyone knew how to work around it.

How about placing a Forest with a Hedgehog? Same block LOS, same dice protection, same ignore 1 flag, and impassable to tanks and arty. Which I guess tells us what these bunkers are made of.

Except that a hedgehog will work for both sides, but I like how you think...

"Sometimes" is really "all the time it's empty". It took me awhile to test the First Assault Wave and get the A.I. to line up so one of us could take a shot hill-to-hill through the bunker. If it happens in an official scenario, then it would happen in all SFTF.
