Graógramán Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 (edited) Salutations, when I use a weapon with Beam X will cover for the X shots after the initial one be determined from the unit that is shooting or from the enemy unit the beam hits and goes on from there? I have a Saber Tank that is elevated on a building and can look over a wall. Behind that wall are three enemy units all getting cover 2 from the Sabers point of view but all units are visible. But they are not in cover from each other. So for the first shot obviously the enemy unit will get cover from the wall, but then when the beam moves to the next enemy unit, does it get cover or not? So does the beam hop from unit to unit therefore originating from the first hit unit or does the beam originates from the tank for all attacks and it is turning its turret to shoot at another unit granting it cover? But if that would be the case it wouldn't be plausible that you can shoot at units that are farther away than the max range of the beam weapon as the rules for it state. Am I overthinking this? We played it, that cover will be applied for every subsequent attack pool, but I'd like you to clarify if that is right. Thank you very much.

Cover for subsequent attacks from a Beam X weapon is determined as normal, determining LOS from the attacking unit to each defending unit.
