WG Capt. Iagn Thunderclaw Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 If I have long fangs in elevated area terrain (ruin building) and I am shooting at a soul grinder in base contact with an ADL does the SG benefit from the 4+ Cover save as I can see all but the bottom 1.5 inches of his front legs?

Morticon Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Is that bottom 1.5" 25% of the model? If yes, then SG gets the save. If no, then nope.

Axagoras Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 unless vehicles have a special rule saying they get a base coversave they will always need 25% cover to get a save, which is why a soulgrinder should have his legs posed so he sits low to the ground.

WG Capt. Iagn Thunderclaw Posted August 17, 2013 Author Share Posted August 17, 2013 Is that bottom 1.5" 25% of the model? If yes, then SG gets the save. If no, then nope. From elevation, all you DONT see is 1.5 inches of SG front legs. You can see 100 % of the rest of the model. I don't have a tape measure on me, but while the model is 5" tall its also, I would estimate 6" long.

DarkGuard Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 You check LoS from the eyes of the model that's firing. So should the elevation of the unit mean that you can see over 75% of the Soul Grinder, then it won't get a cover save, regardless of how much the AGL would cover from ground level. If you can still see only 75% or less of the Soul Grinder, even with elevation, then it will not get the cover save. So yes, elevation does count.
