If Night fighting is in play and a unit is "30 inches",in this scenario, away does it benefit from both stealth and shrouded or just one?

How do you mean 30"?
30" away?
If so it would gain Shrouded only.

Just shrouded plus any other covers saves it may get from other sources.

Units in 12"-24" are instead treated as having Stealth special rule.

The use of "instead" means that it is one or the other.

Yup. Just wanted to clarify. Thanks for the responses.

...so if a unit already have the Shrouded special rule, it will have a better cover save if it stands 12-24" away from the firing unit (Stealth+Shrouded) than if it stands 24-36" away (Shrouded only) ?

That's weird.

Strangely enough, yes.
Can't think of many units that just have Shrouded though...

err. that's right.
Only Tau's disruption pods come into my mind. Not sure there is anything else.

Well I've been playing that wrong. Good to know.
