And other than some generalities, we wont be disclosing any game algorithms as that is covered by the NDA with SSI.

Plus it is not some siplistic hex shift table ALA squad leader etc, its lots of little functions that call subroutines so even if you had the C code in front of you then you'd have to walk through it with a bucket of dice several hundred times in order to get the gist of it.

That is why the gun penetration tool does 1000 rounds per range sample bucket. 1000 samples of runs through the mill gives a useful indication, and a monte carlo simulation is really about the best way to get a feel for the code.

Bottom line to your question
- buidings protect somewhat
- rubbled buildings are better cover still (with no more collapse chance)
- collapsing buildings can kill troops or immobilise vehicles butting into them
