urgent question

[metaldog]

can you roll for cover against a head shot? If so, what happens?

[Wittmann]

No, you can't.

[Sharpe]

You can roll for cover if the headshot is defensive fire. If you make the cover roll, there is no disruption.

You can roll for cover if the headshot is defensive fire. If you make the cover roll, there is no disruption.

Where do you get this from?

Cover saves only remove markers OTHER than Disrupted. Cover does not help against a Headshot, since Headshot does not result in Damaged or Desroyed markers being placed. In addition, they are face-up Distrupted markers, so their effect takes place immediately.

Thank you very much! That is exacly what I thought.
I couldn't find where I had read that before.

JLR--Making a cover roll negates disruption from defensive fire. Works for headshot too if headshot is a defensive fire attack.

I see no real logic behind that move.......but i dunno...........I also don't know anyone who would use headshot on a defensive fire attack when thats all you get.

Headshot stays on for next turn, plus you might be set up to CA.
