| Odd question and the common sense answer would probably be know but thought I'd ask anyway. While night fighting is in effect all units get the stealth special rule so that is a 6+ cover save as base. Hunt from the shadows gives 5+ cover to troops and 6+ to all others in that formation/detachment. Do these bonuses stack? as hunt from the shadows does not give the stealth rule, night fighting does. If they stack it means troops during night fighting have a 4+ cover and every other unit has a 5+ in our formation/detachment. And with night vision we ignore the enemies bonus stealth from night fighting.
Suppose my other question that relates to this is does night shields and hunt form the shadows stack? similar question as night shields give stealth also.

| yes, it stacks, what does obviously not stack is stealth given by nightfighting + stealth given by night shields, as its the same USR.
I guess its useful for infantry models without transport... if we used any. Venoms already have a 5+ invulnerable save and raiders/ravagers will probably want to jink to get that sweet 3+ cover save thanks to night fighting/night shields.
Not a very useful rule tbh. | |

Not a very useful rule tbh. ok, ty for the clarification ^^ maybe if I put venoms and ravagers in cover at start of match...otherwise, CAD > RSR | |
