I seem to remember a rule about using the survival skill to create a blind. It added a +4 to stealth if you remain immobile... I think. Perfect for sniping, but I can't find the rule now. Was it a 3e thing I'm thinking of or am I missing it somewhere?

The only thing I find about a blind as a structure is this:
Blind
Earnings gp or Influence +2
Benefit Perception check required to see through
Create 3 Goods, 2 Influence, 3 Labor (180 gp); Time 10 days
Size 10–30 squaresA Blind is a semisolid wall constructed out of area-appropriate debris and flora. Between 10 and 15 feet high, a Blind helps to conceal any structures behind it as it blends in with the nearby landscape. Structures behind a Blind can be seen only with a successful DC 15 Perception check, and targets of ranged attacks made through a blind gain concealment. One Blind can cover 20 squares' worth of structures; multiple Blinds can be used to conceal larger structures. A Blind can be thickened for double the construction cost, increasing the DC of the Perception check to see through the Blind to 20 and granting total concealment to creatures hiding behind it.
Thanks to both of you.
I guess I was thinking of an earlier edition of D&D. The structures won't really work for what I was thinking. The blanket is similar to what I was thinking about gear to help. I was thinking of the "Masterwork Tool" that gives a +2 to a skill. I was making it a camo poncho. The 50gp price makes sense, being more expensive than the blanket, since it takes more work to make a poncho than a blanket.
I'll talk to the guys and see what we can come up with. We may house-rule it.
Thanks again for the input. If you, or anyone else have anything to add, feel free. Always looking for more ideas.
