I read the latest rules for the larger figures and I can't find anywhere that states a Titan (i.e. Gilgarsh) can make a long range attack. It says a Multiple Dial Figure can but does not say a Titan can. For those that say a Titan is Multiple Dial Figure then why would there be 2 different terms for the same kind of figure? Also,by the text on the special abilities card it sounds like a figure with stealth standing on the other side of hindering terrain, NOT in it, the only ranged combat action you can use is magic blast. Is that accurate?
"Long-Range Attack Option: If a ranged combat action is given to a titan, and the target of the attack is a figure with more than one combat dial, a titan or an opposing castle section, the firer has the option of doubling the range value of the titan while reducing its printed damage value by 2."
Dont know where you found that but here's the string of text I found on wizkids site
Long-Range Attack Option: If a ranged combat action is given to a multiple dial warriors front section, and the target of the attack is a figure with more than one combat dial, a titan, or an opposing castle section, the firer has the option of doubling the range value of the section while reducing its printed damage value by 2.
All it says about a titan there is when he is the target

That's because you are quoting from the multiple-dial warrior rules. It is only talking about multiple-dial warriors attacking. You'll see a similiar bias in the Titan rules (as quoted above) and the Castle rules (the same except substitute Castle for Titan or MDF). The rules for the figures deal with what they can do and don't really deal with what can be done to them.
Essentially, everything that can be hit by a long-range attack can make a long-range attack. The rules are all the same.
In case anyone was wondering, the titan rules can only be found in the conquest book that comes with the conquest pack. I guess that way you'll have an incentive to actually buy the pack, ey?

Actually, you can get them online at Drake the Lesser's site. Not that I don't think you should get the Conquest pack. It is a great buy.
On the other question, "any line of fire drawn to this warriorthat passes through hindering terrain is treated s though it has been drawn through blocking terrain." So it doesn't matter if the figure is in hindering or on the other side, it still benefits from Stealth. Since MB ignores terrain, you can still target it with MB. You can also make an "indirect fire" attack with Titans capable of that, since they aren't blocked by terrain either. And if the firer is on elevated terrain, such as a Castle piece, then intervening terrain doesn't block/hinder unless the terrain is also elevated, so in that case the Stealth figure actually needs to be in the terrain: on the other side won't help.
