Casting from Plague Furnace

Since the furnace is a large target, does that allow the Plague Priest to see and therefore cast over units in front of it? It is specified on the Screaming Bell but not on the furnace. However, since he is mounted on a large target I thought he gained line of sight from it, but I have not been able to confirm this in the rule book.

Since it is a large target and he is ontop of it I would say he gets to cast spells over units and I dont think many would argue against that, The real question would be does he gain 360 line of sight like the bell or keep the initial 90 degree

I'd have to say "no" then. It doesn't have the "above the masses" rule.

The model is a large target, so the Priest has large target LoS. He doesn't have a specific rule giving 360 degree LoS, so he doesn't get it though.

I reread the rule, and I agree with Decker_cky. Large target but facing forward.

On the bright side, the whole 360 issue only matters for Pestilent Breath. All the other spells don't require line of sight. And if you give him the Warp Scroll, then the lack of 360 also matters. But yeah, most of the Plague Lore needs no LoS.
