Basic Training: Take Cover!

THE SHORT VERSION

Stephen Box turns the terrain rules into practical decisions about where to stand, which unit to fire first and which casualties to remove. Space Marine and T’au examples show how a single obscured model can change saves or deny a later attacker a target, while woods, containers, pipes and ruins create different restrictions. A six-question exercise checks the reader’s understanding of cover, visibility and weapons that ignore it.
