How do folk apply visibility limits to opportunity shots and reactions? Had a situation in a recent game where a gentle hill restricted visibility for shooting, so obviously an "opportunity shot" was not allowed. But what about an "opportunity charge"? (the base on opportunity was Scythian LH, comp bow B and impetus 1). We decided that you cannot react to what you cannot see, and so disallowed an opportunity charge. But now I am not so sure, as you can declare a normal charge against a technically out of sight target.

Views?

5.8 says the following, "You cannot charge Units that you cannot see (maybe hidden by terrain elements (3.1.3))."
