Repulsor vehicle silhouette

[FatalSwordsmen]

There seems to no longer be a repulsor vehicle silhouette callout, meaning the only definition for vehicle silhouette is base to top of hull.

 

Does this mean that for units like the t-47 airspeeder you now have to consider los from the base of the t-47 to the target silhouette to see if the enemy would benefit from cover. 

 

so for example, a t-47 is say 5mm behind a barricade, that is within .5 range of the target unit. Old rules, they would not get barricade cover as the old silhouette started in the air, where the hull started. New rules, they would because the silhouette starts from the base.

That is correct; repulsor vehicles do not determine their silhouettes differently than ground vehicles.

Yes, this defender who have cover, provided they are at range 1/2 of the barricade and provided the T-47 Airspeeder is not touching that terrain.

Hope this helps,
