1. Does a figure being tked block LOS from the tk'er to the target square. (I don't think it does, but some fellow players were arguing...)
2. Do grounded figures firing up at an enemy on the rooftop get their LOS blocked by another figure (friendly or opposing) if that figure is in their way? (It used to be like this, but again, another argument between players...)
3. Does a wildcard using 2000 AD have their "chosen enemy" reset if they switch TA's? (I don't think it does...)
Those are it. Just had some guys arguing about these and wanted to have them clarified. Thanks.

General HC FAQ, page 9 under Telekinesis:
• When a character uses Telekinesis to make an attack with an object or move an object or figure, the object or figure being moved does not block the character’s line of fire. A character may therefore use Telekinesis to attack a stealthed character, using the object in the stealthed character’s square.
No.

Indy rule book, page 16:
A grounded character can make a ranged combat attack targeting an elevated character if the only blocking terrain the line of fire crosses is in the square the target occupies. Line of fire from a grounded attacker is not blocked by grounded blocking terrain* or other characters. Do not apply the hindering terrain modifier to attacks made by grounded attackers against elevated targets, unless the terrain occupies the same square as the target.
No.

Indy PAC:
2000 AD At any time during the game, you may declare an opposing team or character as your target. Once the character or team is chosen, it may not be changed. All 2000AD team members increase their attack value by 1 when attacking the chosen team or character.
You do not choose a target for eack individual character. You choose the target for your whole force. Once chosen, all members are set. For example, if you were to MC a 2000AD character, his target is the same as whatever target you chose for your force (if you have already chosen it). In other words: No.

Hope this helps......
*I asked BrotherMagneto about the use of "grounded blocking terrain" in this line, as it pertains to Barrier. While it hasn't made it to the FAQs yet, he assured me that Barrier does indeed still block LOF as normal.
