I am just trying to figure what is the point of this rule if it doesnt apply to this situation?
"If a model or unit has a rule that only applies while it is receiving the benefits of cover (Natural Camo), then that rule will apply while that model or unit is under the effects of ANY RULE that states it gains the benefit of cover (Jorm Trait) even while they are not entirely on or within a terrain feature (So no "terrain" needed)."
Seems like its all there plain as day. Its a very specific rare rule for this specific circumstance is it not?
From the Rulebook:
"IMPROVING THE BENEFITS OF COVER
Some models have abilities that improve the bonus a model receives to its saving throw when it is receiving the benefit of cover — for example, ‘add 2 instead of 1 to saving throws for models in this unit while it is receiving the benefit of cover’. If a model or unit with such a rule is receiving the benefits of cover from a terrain feature with the Light Cover or Heavy Cover trait, then this rule is applied as written. If that model or unit is receiving the benefits of cover from any other terrain features with any other terrain traits, you instead add 1 to its saving throws, in addition to any other benefits of cover that are gained from those terrain features. In either case, invulnerable saves are unaffected."
That's why the NatCam specifically states that the benefit has to be from a terrain feature.
Think about it - if Jorm with NatCam would provide -1 to hit and +1 save without needing the terrain that would be OP as (please do not swear)
