Cover

Cover is protection a piece of scenery provides to a model against Ranged Attacks.
A Size Small, Medium or Large model has Cover against Ranged Attacks if it is within 1 inch of a scenery piece that is higher than the model's base and at least partially obscures the model's Hitbox from the attacker's Line of Sight. If the model is not within 1 inch of the cover at the point of being shot, it gains no benefit.
There are two types of Cover:
- Light Cover — the object is smaller or thinner than the model's size → −2 modifier to the attacker's Ranged Attack.
- Heavy Cover — the object is both taller and wider than the model's size → −4 modifier to the attacker's Ranged Attack.
Note: a Targetless Ranged Attack that targets the ground near the model (rather than the model) ignores the Cover modifier, while the model can still be caught in the effect.
