Hey I need some help with 4 rules.
If you know page nr in rulebook please tell me=)
1. Can you jink vs perils of the warp hits?

2. Can you flame the second floor with a flamer if you are on the ground floor?

3. Do flyers fly infinite high? Or do you check LoS from head / cockpit to determine if you have LoS?

4. Can a flyer get a 25% cover save?

Well this would be better in ymdc i think buuuuut

1) what does perils say about saves?
2) this one changed on the editions but if you can see a target then yes.
3) the game is true line of sight
4) does flyers have a cover save exception in their rules?

He rolled a 1 on the perils table and got sucked in to the warp.
And the unit suffered d6 hits. So can the unit jink?

Has anyone been declared as the target of a shooting attack during this process?

No only that the unit takes D6 hits.

Then you have the answer with that "no"

If the unit was already Jinking (say, they were shot at with an Interceptor weapon in the movement phase of that turn) then they could take those cover saves against the D6 hits of the dragged into the warp result. But as they were not chosen as a target for a shooting attack, they may not declare Jink in response.

These two don't seem to have been very completely or clearly answered for you.

For number 3 you measure to and from the appropriate points on each model. For vehicles you never measure from the head/cockpit - see 'Vehicle Weapons and Line of Sight' in the Vehicles section of the rulebook.

For number 4 there is nothing preventing a Flyer from gaining a cover save in the same way as any other vehicle - see 'Vehicles and Cover - Obscured Targets' in the Vehicles section of the rulebook.

Finally I'd highly suggest looking at the relevant sections of the rulebook before posting. I know there's a lot of material in there if you're not familiar with it, but the two I answered above are quite easy to find. Always much easier and potentially a much quicker answer when looking first and then asking here if you need clarification

I thought zooming flyers couldn't claim cover for intervening terrain or units? Too far from books to double check....

It's in the new DFTS book under Zooming and Cover. Basically, with the new Flyer rules, they can't gain cover saves from intervening models or terrain.
