3) Most Sporting Opponent survey HERE!
Some general, Saffron Slam specific, rules to be aware of:
a) All Saffron terrain pieces, regardless of their keywords, grant the Hidden (13.09) rule to INFANTRY/BEASTS/SWARM units within them, or behind them in the case of barricade/ fence-style features.
b) All flat terrain footprints are considered Obscuring (13.10), regardless of the types of terrain features placed on top of them.
c) If a terrain piece overhangs a flat terrain footprint, the size of the objective is determined by the terrain piece rather than the terrain footprint. If it is not possible for a model to be placed within this terrain piece, being in base to base (or Frame (17.02) to base) contact is sufficient for a model to be within range of that objective (14.02).
d) All terrain pieces which have ground floor windows or other openings are considered Solid (13.11), regardless of whether they are Dense or not.
