Cover Rolls & Hit Counters

[jasonhappel]

Lets say a unit is being attacked by 2 units... the first attack has a successful cover roll and puts a face down disruption counter on that unit.. the second attack fails the units cover roll and scores an additional disruption, putting another face down counter on that unit..

The question is do these 2 disruption counters stack and become a damaged/destroyed counter?

Secondly having that situation occur vise versa where the disprution comes first and the cover roll second with a disruption... does this change anything?

Assumption, all of this is taking place in one assault phase.

First scenario, a damaged/destroyed counter is placed on the unit. It is, in essence, the second hit in a turn.

Second scenario, no second counter is placed. Making a cover roll allows nothing worse than a disruption, so if you already have a disruption counter on that unit, then no new counter is placed on it. If the unit was disrupted and damaged with the first shot, then making the cover roll on the second shot doesn't do anything either.
