Actually I recommended that if a guy was behind "cover", he got a
saving roll, odd he dies even he lived. (Trying to keep it simple.
However it is clearly a more fun game if you have each guy roll "to hit
and to Save, with a modifier for cover plus a set movement rate in
inches. I'll send it along.!
We'll have this ruleset up to ASL size before long!
