45cm, same as a battlefortress, same as the MegaG.

Yes, it's the cover that counts. All they have to do is sit behind a
hill or wood in the near vicinity of the area of ops of the BFs, and any
enemy WE is in, as they say, "a world of hurt".
Alas, though, the enemy in this case has a heap of artillery. These
would be #1 priority, as this army relies completely on tactical
movement, delaying quite a bit for the opportune moment to shift
positions. Which is suicide vs artillery, who just keep on pounding...
Frankly, the artillery scares me a lot more than the Ordinati do: I
consider the latter to be "Free VPs" in many ways. The artillery, if
they're put out of LOS and so immune to the MegaG's Krooz Missiles when
it first comes on the board, are another matter entirely, one I'm not
comfy with at all.
