44  
55 Walls, crates, cars, wrecks, trenches and windows can provide cover. Behind a low wall, soldiers crouch and rise to shoot. If a wall is too tall to shoot over, they move to its corner and lean out.

78 Near misses keep soldiers' heads down and pin them in place. Nearby explosions make them flinch. Explosions can also throw soldiers through the air; some get back up dazed and stumble for a time.
