I know most vehicles become just difficult terrain but can be shot past since they no longer block line of sight. Does a Monolith that has been popped still block line of sight? The thing is freaking huge.

If someone shoots down my monolith, and it isnt a 6 on the pen. table, you better believe that I'm keeping it on the table! That's great cover!!

So is it just cover or does it stop line of sight for things behind it?

If you can see something that is behind it, like a defiler, or a sniper peaking around it, then it is cover. If you can't see the five pariahs that are behind it, then it would block line of sight. But if your opponent can't have LOS, then you can't either.

That is good. I always place it so it will protect me and I had it in the way for a tank that had a Strength 10 AP2 cannon on it last game and he tried to say he was going to shoot though the monolith at my units even though with the model there he could see them at all and it wasn't a guess weapon.

It's a destroyed vehicle, meaning it blocks LOS...
