is there a general rule for accounting for various differences in height/size when proxying or using "counts-as" models?
for example, using the angel of radiance from reaper minis in place of GW's Sanguinor? due to GW's flying pose, the sanguinor is positioned higher than other units of his actual physical size, making him harder to give full cover... the angel of radiance, unless given an elevated base, would be positioned lower to the ground... making it easier to give cover to. the issue really only applies to shooting vs cover, because close combat is determined by base size, but i can foresee the issue coming up on occasion.
