The Fifth Trooper Blog - Cover 101

By Orkimedes, in Star Wars: Legion

@Orkimedes Small note, the purpose of the 2d line drawn from center of base to center of base in the second step of "How to Determine Cover" is not specified, which is to see if the model is in cover due to the obscuring terrain.

Edit: Otherwise, good article. It will be interesting to see what changes with the updated LoS rules that are forthcoming.

Huh, didnt realise archways worked that way

Another subtle yet important distinction is that suppression tokens do not give you light cover, they "increase your cover by one".

This does mean that if they're out in the open they would have Light cover, right? Just wanting to make sure I've been playing this right!

Correct. They improve your cover from 0 (none) to 1 (light).
