So, I'm fairly new to Legion still and I just came to a little realization: on the T-47 Airspeeder specifically, does the fact that it has cover in addition to its armor actually do anything? Generally speaking, cover only ever affects hit icons and armor is immune to normal hits. Crits go through both cover and armor automatically so that doesn't help. Only thing my brain can think is that there might be some timing as regards "Impact" so that before the opponent could switch a hit to a crit, the cover gets rid of it (which, as I type, I realize that only works if the attacker only rolled one hit in the first place).
Thoughts?
Cover + Armor: Does it matter?

Yup, you got it exactly. Dodge and cover happen before Impact.
And, yes, assuming Cover 1 it only matters if the number of hits rolled is less than or equal to the Impact value.

Well that's at least a nice little "just in case" to have in the back pocket. I appreciate it, thanks!
