(i.e., how far in the way is A between B and C.) There's a section in chapter 8 of the PHB on this.2. Figure out the cover AC bonus that this gives to B, just as if A was an obstruction rather than a combatant.3. Give B the AC bonus, for the purposes of C's shot.4. C rolls to hit (with the standard -4, unless s/he has the right feat). If C would have hit B, except for the cover bonus, then the shot might have hit A. If the shot would hit A normally (i.e., if C was trying to hit A and not B), then the shot hits A.Ta da![PS. Don't shoot into Mialee!]</blockquote>
