A quick pre con ruling on Tyranid Hive guard.

The "Impaler Cannon" rules are written for infantry and not vehicles.

So does a vehicle that has used 5th edition smoke after it's movement get a cover save?

Our general discussion focus on weather or not smoke is an area terrain test for vehicles.

Explain to me the rationale you have for it not getting a cover save, if that is your contention.

I would say that smoke effectively counts as area terrain of 4+ cover that obscures more than 50% of the vehicle and the vehicle is in it is probably the ruling that most matches up with the physics of a smoke screen, applied to 40K.
