Does cover apply when a unit defends against an artillery hit?
The rulebook applies the Fire Defense Roll to artillery and gives a fortification cover bonus against it.

Yes — Artillery defense is an ordinary Fire Defense Roll, so the target's cover modifies its Morale. Fortifications also get a +1 cover modifier against artillery, as the rulebook notes.
