Subject: Armor/Cover Save Modifiers - Which applies first?
2+ save unit is in cover and shot at by an AP -1 weapon.
2+ gains 1 to its save from cover, as it can't go beyond 2+ it stays the same. Weapon then reduces the save to 3+
Scenario 2.
2+ unit is in cover and shot by an AP -1 weapon. The weapon reduces the save to a 3+ and then the cover kicks in, increasing it back to a 2+

Senario 2 is how it plays out. The modifiers all apply to the die roll at the same time.
