Today I uploaded a new version of the spotting table. In this new version there are two new visibility categories:
Category 3.5: Infantry Moving Partially Under Cover
Category 4.5: Vehicle Moving Partially Under Cover
Both of these are to be used anytime a vehicle or infantry spends about half it’s movement phase under cover and the other half in the open. The referee will use these two visibility categories at his/her discretion when “In Open” and “Under Cover” do not apply perfectly.

We could probably use a small entry for units that have higher or lower ground attempting to spot, Don’t need to be a huge bonus, just 5% could make a difference. Another option would be to make it incremental +/- based on elevation(ex: +/-2 percent for every 100 meters elevation difference between the attempted spot up to 500m). Just spit balling here, but I think elevation should have an advantage besides just potentially having better line of sight. Thoughts?

The spotting bonus for elevation makes sense… I’ll work on that.

Ian, the new version of the Spotting Table is online and it includes modifiers for elevation. Thanks for the idea.
