Hey John,

There is a long tradition in tabletop and hex board wargaming of publishing defensive tables with actual numeric values. I don't think that's needed in SP.

But at the other end of the scale is not having any idea if certain terrain types offer cover.

I'm the middle camp, where I don't want numeric values, but I would like more information than we have, so I'm not guessing.
