[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 2969438, member: 2011"] This is a difficult question and can be adjudicated either way. However, I would rule the following: 1) If an attacking object (like an arror) misses its target due to the cover bonus (e.g. a PC with an AC of 25 ups it to 29 and if the total was 25 to 28, it hit cover), it is because it got hit (or blocked) by a blade of force. If this happens, the object could get destroyed by the spell since force attacks should affect objects. If the attacking object did not hit the cover bonus, then it was unaffected by the spell. 2) If a stationary object is in the path of the spell, then it automatically gets hit and takes appropriate damage. Yes, I realize the spell indicates creatures, but it also states that they are blades of force. By default, force effects affect objects, hence, unless a given force effect explicitly states that it does not affect objects, it does. [/QUOTE]
