That is what the rules say, however I can not quote chapter and verse
right now, as I am at my desk, pretending to be at work, so I don't have
my rules handy. IIRC (and I think I have this one right) a stand IN
woods or a building counts as "in cover" for the rules on firing. A
stand BEHIND a chunk of terrain counts as hidden. Please recall that
if you are firing at a detachment that is mix in and out of cover, then
you can only hit the ones in cover if and only if you apply the "in
cover" modification to the whole detachment.
