[QUOTE="Aluvial, post: 483922, member: 6862"] I decided to take a crack at using the Hill Giant Skeleton cover at +7 and the PC at +4 of course. I'm assuming that the cover doesn't stack but I could be wrong.... [b]Please check me to make sure I am right!![/b] [b]First the archer:[/b] He needs to hit an AC of 26 to get to the opponent and do damage. Rolls between and including 25 and 23 hit the Giant and do damage since his AC is now 19 (15 +4 for the covering PC) for the archer. Rolls of 22 to 21 hit the PC and do damage. Rolls of 20 and 19 would hit the PC, but carry through to the Giant because of the PC's Dex (can assume it is a +2 based on the touch)! These would also hit the Giant for Damage. A roll of 18 or below would miss everything. [b]Second the Wizard:[/b] Wizard would meet the same cover bonuses... He would need a 19 or above to hit the opponent. Rolls between and including 18 and 16 hit the Giant and do damage (or affect) because his AC is now 13 (9 +4 for the covering PC). Rolls between and including 15 and 12 would hit the PC and do damage (or affect) because the PC's Touch AC is a 12. Did I get this right? Aluvial [/QUOTE]
