<!-- PAGE: Cover -->
'''Cover''' is a game term in ''Eldfall Chronicles''.
'''Cover''' is protection a piece of scenery provides to a model against '''[[Ranged Attack|Ranged Attacks]]'''.


A Size Small, Medium or Large model has Cover against Ranged Attacks if it is '''within 1 inch''' of a scenery piece that is higher than the model's base and at least partially obscures the model's '''Hitbox''' from the attacker's '''Line of Sight'''. If the model is not within 1 inch of the cover at the point of being shot, it gains no benefit.
Cover reduces incoming attack modifiers. '''Light Cover:''' −3 modifier. '''Heavy Cover:''' −6 modifier. A model has Cover when the attacker can draw a line through a piece of terrain within 1" of the target.


There are two types of Cover:
''See also:'' [[Line of Sight]], [[Crouched]]
* '''[[Light Cover]]''' — the object is smaller or thinner than the model's size → '''−2''' modifier to the attacker's Ranged Attack.
* '''[[Heavy Cover]]''' — the object is both taller and wider than the model's size → '''−4''' modifier to the attacker's Ranged Attack.


''Note:'' a [[Targetless]] Ranged Attack that targets the ground near the model (rather than the model) ignores the Cover modifier, while the model can still be caught in the effect.

Answers from Discord

Q: Do Cover and Haze Bombs stack?

A (meksmaks, May 17, 2026): Yes — Cover and Haze Bombs stack.

Q: If the Protector steps in front of an attack, do Cover modifiers use the Protector's position or the original target's?

A (deokel, May 10, 2026): All modifiers — including Cover — apply based on the Protector's actual position. Smart positioning of the Protector is rewarded by the rules.
