Cover & terrain

[Kuangren]

Quote

A straight line can be drawn from any portion of the attacking character’s base to any portion of the defending character’s base through any number of those terrain parts.

In this paragraph, what does "a straight line through terrain parts" means exactly?

If all other conditions of cover are met:

Case 1:

501 and B1 is on the same terrain part at the exactly same height (also, the same elevation). They both have a hunker token. When they range attack each other, will they gain Cover [2]?

Case 2:

501 and B1 is on the different terrain part at the exactly same height (also, the same elevation). They both have a hunker token. When they range attack each other, will they gain Cover [2]?

Case 3:

501 and B1 is on the different terrain part at the different height (but within range 2, which is the same elevation). They both have a hunker token. When 501 range attack B1, can B1 gain Cover [2]?

Also, does Open terrain grant a character cover? It does not specific Blocked terrain in the cover section of the rule. 

 

Thank you.

If the line touches an appropriate terrain part.

If this is in reference to Clear terrain, yes. Clear or Blocked is for Line of Sight consideration, which has no connection to Cover.
