Guides & Tutorials / Re: A Guide to Ranged Combat Mechanics (WIP)

''Cover: A character who ducks behind a wall or other
large solid object (car, counter, large heavy machine,
etc.) gets the protection of that object’s Durability and
Structure.'' - found this on the mage book.
shouldn't we use this system instead of applying shield mechanics to a giant wall :omegalul:
in simpler terms, would someone be kind to make a guide with certain objects that are commonly used in our story (walls, cars) w/e?
and the system is simple, structure of an object is its ''health levels'' and durability is its ''auto'' soak, meaning if a wall has 5 durability and 10 structure, u punch that wall and deal 5 bashing/lethal means its automatically soaked by the wall's durability. if u manage to deal lets say 6 bashing/lethal to it, 1 damage goes through (5 auto soaked), meaning that 1 damage deducts from the Structure (health lvls of the wall).
also the book mentions that for certain aggravated strikes, u can half the structure/durability of the object in place.
gun shots are very often in our game settings so i think a quick ruling on this is needed

1- The way i understood ''cover'' mechanics, is that they only apply when you're trying to shoot from behind cover, for instance you're shooting from behind a wall and you peek out momentarily to make that shot, this is where your attacker suffers +2 to shoot you and you suffer +1, that's crystal clear -- but what if you're not firing back at him and you're just using the wall to shield yourself entirely, shouldn't that just prevent you from getting shot entirely? unless the attacker moves around you and exposes your cover, he shouldn't be able to make the shot? that's how it works right? let's say im hidden behind a giant truck, the sniper HAS NO WAY OF EVEN seeing any part of my body, don't tell me hes gonna add +3 diff or spend a willpower point on diff 10 just to land 1 impossible shot (impossible to wod standards aswell).
The way i see it he shouldn't be able to make that shot unless he's got some sort of bullets or powers that allow your shots to pierce /through/ metal or whatever.
pls someone with actual wod knowledge reply no offense i dont want someone saying saying fortitude soaks aggravated.
