    infantry give a tank a cover save now?

    does a unit of infantry in front of a tank give said tank a cover save? the example is a predator shooting at another predator the predator being fired upon has a squad of tactical s in front of it. does the unit of tactical s grant a cover save?

    if they physically obscure 25% of the tank from the point of view of the gun, say two lines shoulder to shoulder in front, than it is possible.

    Actualy thats not quite right MWJ. If a shot passes between models in a unit then tha intervening unit grants a cover save on the target unit. So it is posable to have clear LOS but they will still get a cover save.

    But to answer the question. Yes, infantry do give cover to vehicles.

    (Point of note, it was posable to do this last edition but nowhere near as easy)
    I'll think of something appropriate soon enough to put here.
