Hi guys,, this i think is a simple one, some people have been saying vehicles benefit from whatever terrain there in, so for example a tank in a ruin has a 4+ cover save and if its bolstered.. then its a 3+ cover save etc.

Is this actually the case now are have I missed something in the book?

That is only true if they are actually 25% or more obscured by that terrain.

so if they are 25% covered, they gain the covers save (like a 3+ cover forrest for example)

Vehicles gain a cover save just like infantry (Except for area terrain) so they get the cover save of whatever is actually obscuring them. 5+ for most things, 4+ for a ruin, 3+ for a fortification Etc...

P.S. I think Forests grant a 5+, not a 3+, but do not quote me on that.
