Own troops blocking line of sight

here another one. Rules say that my own troops block the line of sight. I suppose that is only true if they are on the same level? In our situation I had an FO on a hill who was spotting enemy troops on a hill on the other side of the table, in the valley in between I had some troops of mine. We thought that the FO was ok to spot and moved on, but I am less sure now.
Could you clarify please?
Thx

We also allow tanks to fire through other units, however the unit being fired through then has to take a MC. That is just our addition. Infantry cannot fire throught other infantry!

Kenny is right. Typically, units on the same level cannot see through anything else on their level, be it friendly or enemy. an FO cannot see through a tank, truck, jeep large gun, etc., that is front of it. Infantry may be a different matter as a squad of infantry at longer and longer ranges would not necessarily hinder LOS, but may be construed as an enemy target or at least confuse the spotter to who is friend or foe depending upon how close the enemy is to friendly. I would use your best discretion as a GM.
