[DL] Snipers



Hello
 
I was wondering if anybody could offer me some advice on how to run a combat where the heroes come under fire from a single sniper.  They are approaching across a plain while the sniper is embedded in a hill range up ahead, there is limited cover for the heroes.
 
I am quite a newcomer to the game and have only run the scenario in the back of the Marshall's handbook as well as a couple of shoot-outs just to get used to the rules with the players.
 
Any marshals run anything like this?  Should the sniper get an automatic free action?  How should I manage whether the heroes can actually see the sniper?  Should I have them make a cognition roll before every action?
 
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, or a reference to the rules that I might have missed.  I am playing the classic system.
 
Regards
James
