Getting Cover: Defender elevation vs Terrain elevation?


Recommended Posts

Under the heading Hunker Tokens and Cover, (p 37.)

one of the bullet point requirements for having cover from terrain is: 

Quote
  • The defending character must be within Range 1 of one or more terrain parts at the same or higher Elevation than the attacking character.

Is this line saying that the defending character must be at the same elevation or higher elevation than the attacker, or that the terrain must be at the same elevation or higher than the attacker? 

 

For an example

Kalani is on top of a building. 

A 510st Clone Trooper is standing within range 1 of that building, and has a hunker token. 

Are the 4 criteria for the Clone having cover being met? 

  • The character's Unit must have one or more Hunker tokens.
  • The defending character must be within Range 1 of one or more terrain parts at the same or higher Elevation than the attacking character.
  • 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. 
  • The attacking Character is using a Ranged  attack.

The terrain must be at the same or higher elevation as the attacker
